gender relations are simultaneously relations of cooperation, connection, and mutual support, and of conflict, separation, and competition, of difference and inequality. gender relations are concerned with how power is distributed between the sexes. they create and reproduce systemic differences in men's and women's positions in a given society. they define the way in which responsibilities and claims are allocated and the way in which each is given a value. gender relations vary according to time and place, and between different groups of people. they also vary according to other social relations such as class, race, ethnicity, disability, and so on. 5. gender (or sexual) division of labor in all societies, men and women are assigned tasks, activities and responsibilities according to their sex. the gender division of labor varies from one society and culture to another, and within each culture, it also changes with external circumstances and over time. because …

sets of concepts which aim to distinguish between the visible aspects of gender relations between women and men (for example, as seen in the different activities they participate in), and the invisible power relations which determine these activities. as a result of their low status in the community, the activities which women perform tend to be valued less than men's; and in turn, women's low status is perpetuated through the low value placed on their activities. condition and position condition: this term describes the immediate, material circumstances in which men and women live, related to their present workloads and responsibilities. providing clean water or stoves for cooking, for example, may improve the condition of women by reducing their workload. position: this concept describes the place of women in society relative to that of men. changing women's position requires addressing their strategic gender interests, including equal access to decision-making and resources, …
