An educational psychological perspective on partner roles in heterosexual marriages

Contemporary and traditional sex roles differ in clarity. As such couples find it difficult to
share these sex roles because of beliefs and attitudes they hold about them.


In an attempt to generate guidelines with regard to the complementary sharing of these
roles, sex differences and the nature of sex roles were discussed.
Although men and women are similar in some respects, they however have

fundamental unchangeable differences. Sex roles on the other hand, have changed drastically over
the years.


Data was gathered through the use of interviews. The result of this study indicates that
men and women hold conflicting beliefs and attitudes concerning the sharing of sex
roles.


A set of guidelines have been formulated to assist couples to share their sex roles in a
complementary way so as to make their homes authentic primary educational environments.. / Psychology of Education / M. Ed. (Guidance and Counselling)
