USA Today Snapshot Graph












On Mother’s Day, almost ¾ of mothers who dine at home cook the meal, whether alone or with help, proving that most mothers still follow the stereotypical female gender role of housewife.

The graph shows that women alone are drifting away from the stereotypical female role of housewife, because about 2/3 of mothers do not cook or have help from others, such as their spouse or children, when cooking a Mother’s Day meal.

According to the graph, ¾ of mothers still cook the meal on Mother’s Day, proving that most Americans do not celebrate holidays appropriately. If we did we would not make our mothers cook on the day when we are supposed to honor them.
