I think Somali Women should do the house-type work not because that's all they're good at, but because it makes sense. They give birth to the babies and they nurse them.
Since the babies are attached to the mother emotionally, the mother is the best person to raise them. Since the babies must be kept safe at home, the mother must stay at home. Since the mother must stay at home, she might as well do most of the work that needs to be done inside the home.
Now, obviously we have alternatives in modern times such as babysitters, daycare, etc. but the fact remains that SOMEBODY'S gotta watch the kids and it's usually the mother.
The man's job is to provide income for the woman and children by going out and hunting/working for food/money. Sure, the woman could do this too, and just as well, but it makes more sense for her to be taking care of the house and the babies.
Prehistoric men realized it was a good idea for men and women to take on these different roles, which is why over time men became more muscular than women in order to hunt more effectively. Women, on the other hand, evolved so as to better give birth to and care for children.
Instinctively, men are not usually the nurturing sort. If they were left with the children while the mother went hunting, then I fear for the well-being of those children.
One example is diaper changing. If you ever watch a mother change her baby's diaper, she does it with a smile on her face. "Awww, baby went poopie." A man, on the other hand, grimaces in disgust and hardly even wants to touch the thing.
I have changed a diaper before and it was absolutely gross. I would have to love that kid a LOT more than I do now before I would change that diaper every single day.
Also when a baby cries, a mother always knows just what they want. A man, on the other hand, will just stand there in pained confusion and/or bring it to a woman and ask her how to turn the thing off.
I used to babysit for my older sister on occasion, when she has to work and can't drop them off at daycare, but it's almost too much for me to bear and they won't stop crying.
Women=Stay home wives+Male =breadwinners = less divorce + successful offsprings
