Why are domestic services of house-women not treated as economic activities?
Share
In India, most women generally look after domestic affairs like cooking of food, washing of clothes, cleaning of utensils, looking after children, etc. They are not treated as economic / productive activities. This is mainly because of two reasons:
(a) Such activities are performed out of love and affection and hence their valuation is not possible.
(b) They do not add to the flow of goods and services in the economy.
