Ann Oakley conducted a research on the housewife role. She has interviewed women who are housewives from the 1970s about how is it like being a housewife.
They work 77 hours for average hours per week, also the interviewees commented on the aspects of their work that they like/dislike. Ann Oakley refers to the social isolation which housewives don't have a chance to interact apart from the children at home. And it's a repetitive nature of having the same housework take in turns. They also commented on the household techonology, how it liberates women from the housework.
However, Ann Oakley made an adjustment on some of the aspects from those housewives that don't really make things any different, and the housewife role is emphasising on women's role as a domestic labourer.
