“…Despite women’s roles as workers within a family business being acceptable in Greece, women continue to be bound by gender norms that connect femininity to nurturing, cooking and cleaning, roles which are reinforced by the Orthodox Church’s teachings and cultural mechanisms such as that of gossip and “honour and shame” (Du Boulay, 1986). Indeed, many female participants expressed how they felt it was their responsibility to complete social reproduction, as illustrated by Hara, a female silversmith who says: “you know, every woman knows it, that it is her responsibility to do the housework” (Hara, interview).…”

Η ιδεολογία που η Juliet Du Boulay (1983) περιγράφει σχετικά με την ταύτιση των γυναικών στην αγροτική Ελλάδα με την Εύα, πράγμα που συνεπάγεται τη «συμβολική, ηθική και φυσική αδυναμία τους» , φαίνεται πως είναι κοινή στη συνείδηση και των δύο φύλων στην περιοχή. 48 Καθώς, σύμφωνα με το μύθο της πτώσης τους ανθρώπου, «ο άντρας υπήρξε το θύμα της αποπλάνησης της Εύας, εμπλέκεται λιγότερο στην αμαρτία της σεξουαλικότητας από τη γυναίκα».…”

“…Ένας άντρας που βρίσκεται συχνά μακριά από την οικογενειακή εστία, αφήνοντας απροστάτευτη την οικογένειά του, απέχει πολύ από την ενσάρκωση του σωστού οικογενειάρχη. Άλλωστε, αυτή την προστασία είναι που προσμένουν οι γυναίκες ως ανταμοιβή τους για τη σεμνότητα, την υπακοή (ακόμα και την υποταγή) που έχουν μάθει να δείχνουν σε όλη τους τη ζωή (Juliet dy Boulay 1983).…”
