Abstract
It has been found that the unequal division of domestic labor is often considered fair. The finding is that the main causes of gender behavior in the family are the strength of gender norms and expectations, and accountability through social interactions. Housework seems to be a manifestation of the process of internalization and socialization of gender norms. Housework can also be understood as a way for individuals to replicate their gender identity. Through interactive gender behavior, they can behave normally in the social world and avoid the negative consequences of violating gender norms. With the awakening of female consciousness, more and more men will share the responsibility of family. This article uses game theory to examine the reasons behind the long-standing unequal division of household.
