Ancient Chinese men were often soldiers and labourers. They were superior to women and were to look after their household. Men could be scholars, merchants, slaves or government officials.The men were in charge of farming.
There were four different occupation classes in China.
The highest group was made up of scholars, called "shi". They were the people like nobles and philosophers.
Most of the population worked as farmers (nong), growing food and taking care of livestock. They were the poorest of all the groups, but (after the class of the scholars) were the most respected because their work was what kept China fed.
Then there were the craftsmen and artists (gong). Craftsmen jobs included metalworkers, carpenters, musicians, potters, leather workers, and many others. Most of the craftsmen weren't rich, but were more well off than the farmers, though less respected.
And last there were the merchants (shang). They basically were the people who bought things from different provinces and sold them in places with more demand for more money. It was a job based on cleverness as opposed to skill, and this is why I'm guessing that the shang class was least respected. They usually got very rich, especially when the silk routes started to form.
And there are a few more jobs that come to mind just from common sense: there were probably doctors and scribes, although I do not know whether they would be considered as scholars or craftsmen. Not to mention there were probably messengers (couriers) and lacquer-workers -- both probably craftsmen. On top of all that, all men of a certain age were required to join the army as a soldier for two years.
Hope this was helpful.
Even though the Taoism in China believed that men and women are two parts of the world, like masculine and femanine, still women are considered inferior. In the more ancient parts of Chinese history women enjoyed alot more freedom. But around the
neo-confucianism around 1100 tied up the role of women as domestic and obeying.
Men's roles in Ancient China were being in armies, scholars, teachers, etc.
The role of men in the Qin dynasty was simply working on the great wall !!!!! If not, they would get executed!!
