Principally, this study aims to explore and discover the triple roles of women traders, meaning work experienced by women traders and system division of labour within the family between the wives and husband. Methods that are relevant to this study are qualitative depth priority, wealth and complexity in the data. This study collected data through observation, and in-depth interview. The number of informants participated in this study is 10 people. The study found that women who trade in the market have a reason for deciding to work in the public sphere because (1) looking for an activity outside home; (2) help the family economy;( 3) the husband does not work. Triple roles are a form of gender discrimination as the victim is a woman being a female worker. This study also looks at several factors affecting women’s double burden as a result of patriarchal culture.
