Gender in Inuit Society

In Alaska, life for the men and women were the same as almost every culture in the U.S. Men were the leaders and the labor was not equal. The men picked up food and hunted, and did everything needed for a successful day of hunting. On the other hand, the house hold work and the routines that kept everything in tacked were the basis for the women. Women didn’t have say on when they got married or to whom. The Tlingit Women were more involved in their families. The men and women did pretty much of the same things but trade. They both didn’t really have a say because in their culture they really respected their elders and basicly what ever they said went.
