Tasha believes that gender is about the division of labor in the family. In the pre-industrial era, men were the hunter-gatherers and bread-winners, and women were keepers of the home. After World War II, changes in the family structure allowed women to become breadwinners also, altering the roles of the family. From what sociological perspective do Tasha’s thoughts come?

The correct answer is Structural Functionalism

It is good to distinguish structural-functionalism from anthropology with the homonymous theory of sociology. In sociology, structural-functionalist theory explains the functioning of a society based on social actions. That is, how the various actions of individuals make society work in a more or less stable way. Social actions emerge from actions, from which, in turn, social institutions arise. Influenced by Durkheim and Radcliffe-Brown, structural-functionalist sociological theory took shape with Talcott Parsons (1902—1979) and Robert K. Merton (1910—2003) in the postwar United States. However, sociological structural-functionalism, for its proponent Talcott Parsons, was not a school of thought or a theory, but a methodological stage.
