Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Gender division defines the division of work between women and men. It is not based on biology but on social expectations (what society and family expect from both). Some household work, like washing, cooking, cleaning, etc., is exclusively meant for women, while men have other defined work areas. It doesn't mean that men cannot do household work. They simply think it is for women to attend the household work inside the home. The same result is supposed to be done by women at home. Therefore, the nature of work is governed by society's expectations and traditional practices, which have led to the distorted division of labour.
