Article resulting from research developed in the Specialization course in Education, Social and Environmental Sustainability of the Lato Sensu Postgraduate Program in Education of the Federal Institute Catarinense, Campus Camboriú. This research aimed to investigate the naturalization of housework as a feminine task with the purpose of investigating the contribution of the study of the female work in the debate of Environmental Education in a critical perspective. Adopting the bibliographical revision as methodology, a bibliographic mapping was carried out with productions available online, having as main key words: woman, housework, social and sexual division of labor. Selected the materials, it focused on the study of living conditions in relation to the work of maintenance and reproduction of life, the most expensive commodity on the market, the workforce, from the marxist approach. Based on this method and the readings of the texts, it was observed that the naturalization of domestic, as a feminine function is a historical consequence of the social relations of production and reproduction of human life, of exploitation of capital and domination of patriarchy. In the face of this, this research affirms that the termination of female subjugation in its entirety is only possible to be realized in its fullness with the universal emancipation of humanity.
