Roles are clearly divided. Not oppression — efficiency.
Man
Plowing, sowing, harvesting. Building. Large livestock care (horses, cows). Workshop (furniture, repairs). Finances (buying, selling, taxes). Spiritual leadership (table prayers, family Bible reading).
Woman
Kitchen: 3 meals daily for 8-10 people. From scratch. Every day. Home: cleaning, laundry, sewing. Children: raising, teaching, caring. Garden: vegetables, herbs, flowers. Dairy: butter, cheese, cream. Canning: 500-1,000 jars per year.
Overlap
Man helps in kitchen during canning season (heavy kettles). Woman helps in field during harvest (all hands needed). Children participate in both worlds until 12-14, then specialize.
Who Decides
Man is head of family (Bible). But in practice, they decide together. 'A wise husband listens to a wise wife.' Financial decisions — discussed. Moving — discussed. Buying land — discussed. Formally — husband. Really — consensus.
