Abstract:

Religion, which plays an irrevocable role in the creation of mind, has a key role in building individuals’ social gender role attitudes. This article explores how religion, higher education, working, religious, 0-6-year-old women and their spouses influence the formation of social gender attitudes, the choice of spouses, the perception of femininity and masculinity, homework and parental roles. The study aims to show how the religious institution affects the 25 married couples, the choice of spouses, the formation of social gender role attitudes and the sharing of household affairs and child care responsibilities. Based on the data obtained by the deep interview technique, this study results in the social gender of participants, which they see as a religious superior value, and the sharing of responsibility for homework and child care. The religious background, which was materialized in the example of Muhammad, has been found to provide strong arguments to women participants. And also Hz. Muhammad-med’s sharing of homework is interpreted as a religious order, not a advice by the male participants who do not do homework; participation in homework for the highest men has provided a religious explanation that legitimates their homework against their traditional families.
