Relating to, existing, or occurring outside a person's home or household; external to domestic affairs.
From 'extra-' (outside, beyond) + 'domestic' (from Latin 'domesticus' meaning of the home). This term developed in sociology and economics to describe activities or relationships outside the family sphere.
The rise of 'extradomestic' as a concept in the 20th century reflected huge social changes—as more women entered the workforce and families relocated, sociologists needed vocabulary to describe all the parts of life happening outside the home.
