Psychology is not unaware to this fact, and the temporal devotion of different spheres of life and the use of free time in men and women are taking shape as a subject of vital prevalence with economic, working, personal and, social consequences. To be in mind this gender perspective in the study of leisure is a vital tool to understand the lifestyles of women and men, the work life balance and the impact that those aspects have in the physical and mental health of people.
