In Home Sweat Home: Perspectives on Housework and Modern Domestic Relationships, contributors explore the construction of women as homemakers and the erasure of household labor from the middle-class home in popular representations of housework. They concentrate on such matters as the impact of second-wave feminism on families and gender relations; of popular culture—especially film, television, magazines, and advertising—on our views of what constitutes domestic life and gender relations; and changing views of sexuality and masculinity within the domestic sphere.
