Gender roles

Gender roles

Gender roles referes to the attitudes and behaviors of a gender, for example women usually cook and clean while men fixes the car and takes care of all the technical stuff.

In Denmark this is different though, If a woman is better at fixing the car than the man, then thats her job, and if the man is better at cooking that the woman then the man does the cooking. Women and men can have the exact same jobs and are allowed to work anywhere as long as they have the qualifications.

  1. I just want to add, that we have some gender roles in Denmark, though they are not very strict. For example it is very rare to see a woman fix a car (:
