Resumen
PEREZ-BALEON, Guadalupe Fabiola. Gender inequalities at the beginning of a steady labor life. Pap. poblac [online]. 2012, vol.18, n.72, pp.213-246. ISSN 2448-7147.
The study focuses on examining the ages at which the first steady job took place in three cohorts of Mexican men and women (1936-1938, 1951-1953 and 1966-1968). We analyze the socio-demographic factors associated with it. The aim was to clarify how the cohort differences and the socioeconomic and gender inequalities affected the initiation of the labor life during the second part of the 20th century. The research indicates that in spite of the historical, social, economic and cultural changes the country registered, men and women continued entering adulthood following the gender roles, regardless of their socioeconomic stratum. The masculine incorporation was almost universal, while in the feminine population this transition did not become institutionalized as a part of their life.
