Time Allocation between Paid and Unpaid Work among Men and Women: An Empirical Study of Indian Villages
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The topic of manuscript is very interesting. Differences between men and women are a serious global problem.
The data used in the paper are from 2014, which in my opinion is not very current.
Some tables are behind the margins of the page, so it was not possible to view them completely.

Reviewer 2 Report
Theory: The authors have not used any theory in the paper. A theory would help authors to explain their findings—for example, reasons for the gender gap in economic and non-economic activities. Authors can explain the reasons for such differences using Time Availability Perspective or Patriarchal Theory. Analysis: The analysis section is very clumsy. The headings of the table need to be more clear. The authors started the analysis section with exploratory analysis, explaining results presented through graphs in percentages. The authors then presented their findings ( assuming regression co-efficient) in Tables. However, the way authors have written their analysis; it looked like they are explaining descriptive statistics, not regression co-efficient. The analysis section needs major revision. In your description, please refer to the table number. I feel that the authors need to rewrite the analysis section. As the authors explain their findings, they provide reasons for such findings using theory/ies. That make analysis more meaningful.Author Response
