SOCIOL 2Q06 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Sex Segregation, Market Segmentation, Employment-To-Population Ratio
Document Summary
Men are neither supposed nor allowed to be dependent. They are expected to take care of both others and themselves. Need to work from graduation till death- death is only then when you are permitted to stop working for pay.

We look down on men who are on financial dependency from either their parents or their partner: 2. Jobs should be their central focus-it has to be subordinating all other roles (i. e. father, brother, husband), we reduce men to a money making machine. Men need to be pushed and focus on paid labour: 3. Fulfillment comes through work roles men should get a self- actualization through their paid work- your job defines who you are.
