The study is conducted using 115 texts completed between 1983 - 2016.

Prominent titles in every group, study types and architecture point of view are emphasized. Without any doubt studies in every discipline started to emphasise gender and gender inequality. Although architecture has significant borders, it is promising that there are such studies. It is seen that gender inequality has multi-dimensional effects on the object during design process, city usage and vocational aspects. This process is advantageous for man, but for woman gender roles are defined as coherent passive, secondary, limited to personal life. With this study accumulations for this area are founded as well as vocational contribution that can be applied to reform social relations for woman and man are stated.
