Description
Sex and space use: the mediation of role distribution in the households.
Authors show by means of two surveys they processed, the complexity of the relationship between gender différenciation and space use. They analyse this relationship with the mediation of role distribution in the household. Factors such as matrimonial status of household (couple or mother alone), employment status of woman (working or not working), children and urban space, seem to be far more discriminating than only gender difference between men and women. Responsibility of household activities (children and shopping) is always for women, but the strongest difference in activity participation and space use is at first between both working men and women on the one hand and non-working women on the other hand, and secondly between working men and working women.

À travers les résultats de deux enquêtes qu'ils ont menées, les auteurs montrent la complexité de la relation entre différenciation sexuelle et usage de l'espace, et cherchent à l'expliquer par la répartition des rôles au sein du ménage. Le statut matrimonial du ménage (couple ou mère seule), le statut d'emploi de la femme (active ou inactive), l'âge des enfants et le type d'espace urbain apparaissent être des facteurs largement plus discriminants que la simple différence entre hommes et femmes. Même si la responsabilité des charges familiales revient toujours aux femmes, le clivage dans la pratique des activités et l'usage de l'espace se situe d'abord entre hommes et femmes actifs d'une part, femmes inactives de l'autre, et secondairement entre hommes et femmes actives.
