The sociologist Cristina García Sainz of the Autonomous University of Madrid has ensured that co-responsibility in domestic tasks between women and men is deficient because there is still a "gap of two to four hours a day more in the time that women devote to tasks domestic or the care of the elderly or children". García Sainz has given the conference "Corresponsabilidad, usos del tiempo y desigualdad" during the celebration of International Women's Day at the Universitat Jaume I.

In her opinion, a large part of the inequality between men and women arises from the differences existing when distributing domestic work and care for children, the elderly or the sick. She has proposed that when talking about work, we should not only include remunerated work, but also all those unpaid modalities because "many economies are sustained outside the labour market".

The director of the Equality Unit of the Autonomous University of Madrid has explained that there are two kinds of time, quantitative time (*chronos*) and qualitative time (*kairos*), which directly influence people's quality of life, because a greater dedication of women to domestic or care tasks subtracts them leisure, study, remunerated work or rest time, and places them in a situation of "time poverty".

In addition, the difference in the time dedicated to paid work to address domestic issues, as she has indicated, is the cause of situations of inequality at the time of promoting at work, opting for a new position, receiving a benefit for unemployment or in the amount of the retirement pension. Finally, the sociologist has indicated that there is much ignorance about the term *feminism*, which would be the doctrine that promotes equal rights, and this should be remedied to avoid falling into topics that do not adapt to reality.
