Discovered tensions between the fields of home and profession reveal limits and opportunities of women and men in different social spheres. An image of a man as an active creator of his space, social relations, success and fate is constructed, while a woman is more passive and less independent – in defining the identity, man’s “self” creates relations, woman’s “self” is created by relations. The core point of the structural relations of domination is disclosed, when woman who is taking a relatively higher social position “pays” for her professional success in lesser “success” in the field of home and family; and on the contrary, success of family obligations is reached by renouncing professional success. In the framework of gender relations, the quantitative analysis reveals an aspect of cooperation, partnership, although qualitative conclusions maintain a dominant declarative aspect that confirms dominating practices and conceptions.
