Sexual division of labor
Describe (and compare and contrast) the gender or sexual division of labor of two different cultures that have two different modes of subsistence (from the four modes of subsistence described in this week’s reading; foraging, pastoralism, horticulture, or agriculture). You must choose the two societies from examples in the Week 3 textbook reading and you must name the two societies from the Week 3 textbook reading and cite them. How do your chosen examples of two different cultures show that subsistence systems are linked to cultural expectations about gender roles?
