The influence of biological sex on the male and female social roles was studied by the variance analysis. The representatives of the four types of partnerships were observed: premarital, de facto marriage, the young and the mature marriage. The first type is characterized by the severity of the women’s requirements to their partner’s participation in the organization of everyday life. In the de facto marriage women more actively than men executed the role of sexual partner, while men - the role of the organizer of the family subculture. In young families there was a gender asymmetry of family parenting roles - the responsibility was shifted to the mother. In mature families the householder role was more important for women than for men. Long-term marital relationships had contributed to the fact that women had higher marital status and therefore a higher level of authority than their marital partners.
