摘要
Abstract
Using data from Survey on the Status of Chinese Women conducted in 2000 and 2010, this paper examines the phenomenon of men's participation in housework in China.The results show that China is witnessing an important, albeit slow, trend of equalizing division of household work between couples.In 2010, twenty percent of the couples aged 18 to 64 shared their housework relatively equally.Educationally homogamous marriage are more favorable in promoting equal division of housework between couples, compared with the traditional hypergamous marriage.Moreover, the newly-emerging marital pattern with women marrying downward in educational gradient also promotes men's equal participation in housework significantly.This study concludes that an equal division of housework signifies the direction for future development of domestic division of labor.Rapid advances of female education and evolving nature of assortative mating are the most effective forces driving the equalization process.Nevertheless, it is also important to equip the society with more friendly social services as to facilitate the process.关键词
