When our grandparents were young, the man had a job and the woman stayed at home to do the household tasks. One the one hand the sons of the family helped the father at job but they didn't have to help at home. On the other hand the daughter helped her mom at home. In conclusion, if you were a man you had more priviledges.
When our parents were young, the situation got balanced. The sons of a family started to help at home and some women started to work outside home. At home the tasks were more distributed, but the woman still did most of the things.
At our times, boys and girls do the same tasks at home. And their parents too. There are still some jobs considered male jobs such as bricklayers, plumbers., mechanics, etc. Fortunatelly things are changing.

Nice to read your story and listen to it. We don’t have much to say about this theme either. We think there are a lot of similarities but we are not going to name all of them. We do think it’s very good that also in your country, women have a better position than years back.
