law, without the control of government agencies. Even though in carrying out their work there are multiple risks, ranging from acts of consumer violence, arrests during policing by police officers, and a high risk of developing deadly diseases, nonetheless, this type of the wrong occupation that is most likely to be entered by those without capital and work tools relying solely on their female bodies. Contemporary developments where capitalism has moved to communication and technology capitalism is increasingly exciting for the Wrong Occupation doers with the birth of the online system. CSWs do not only gather in prostitution but can also be on-call according to consumer demand. With regard to these online opportunities, this has even stimulated celebrities/artists to join.
Such is the phenomenon that is happening in the midst of the struggle of human life which has the essence of work but is conditioned to be wrong as a result of gender bias.
they seem to be competing and then inevitably defeated.
With the hegemony of discrimination, women in an effort to realize human nature work to make a living. As Marx mentioned, by working human becomes whole, free, and happy, but this is far away from reality for women. Meanwhile, in their domestic life, women are no less under pressure due to patriarchal ideology. Women are often abused, which often forces women to divorce, and their position as child caretakers also forces them to divorce with the burden of raising children.
In the midst of their efforts to survive with various pressures, it becomes logical for them to try to enter a job without a legal basis, but has consumers who never subside. Marginalized women choose to become Commercial Sex Workers (CSWs) in various prostitutions including Denpasar City. They carry out the work in the wrong occupation, without the force of law, without the control of government agencies. Carrying out routine work that still has multiple risks, but the wrong occupation is the most likely job for those without capital and work tools who rely solely on their feminine body.
Critical efforts are needed to continue to uncover the gender gap in order to be able to further emancipate women to be
equals to men in achieving a free and happy life.

The role of women in general is someone who has a position as a wife and
housewife who is responsible for household activities. The role of women is usually to do all the housework, from cleaning the
house, cooking, washing, taking care of children and all things related to the household. The dual role of women is a job or part of the task carried out by women in this case the wife as a housewife and plays a role in helping her husband earn a living in meeting the economic needs of the family during the COVID-19 pandemic at the research location. Economics in this study is intended to be an activity or human effort in fulfilling the needs or desires of life.
Thus, conceptually almost all human activities related to meeting the needs and desires in their lives are economic activities.
Fulfillment of the family's economic needs are all community activities and efforts to meet the basic needs of life, namely food, clothing, housing, health, education and others. The family is the smallest environment in society consisting of father, mother and children. Of the three components of the family, each has roles and responsibilities, such as the father is the head of the family and the mother has the role of a wife for her husband and also a mother for her children (Mikkelsen, 2003).
The responsibility of a father is to play a role in earning a living for the family or to fulfill the needs of clothing, food, housing, health, education and looking after his family and his wife to take care of the household, as a caregiver and educator of their children and to regulate the needs that include things that in the household. In
contrast to the role of children and families, children have a role as a complement in the family, more specifically as the next generation of a family.
Regarding the family, the most important thing to support in building a family is the pattern of communication and economy (Asya'rawi, 2005). Both of these things greatly affect the welfare of the family both physically and mentally.
However, in the current era of globalization, the factor that most influences family welfare is the economic level, whether or not the family's needs are fulfilled. For families who have a sufficient economic level, it will be easier to build relationships and meet family needs so that physical and mental welfare can be met in a balanced way, but it is different from families whose economy is weak. Inability and the economy will make it difficult for a family to achieve prosperity, even causing bigger problems such as divorce and domestic violence.
The role of women as housewives is very decisive because they have to maintain, maintain and carry out their roles, both as regulators and family household administrators (Aminah, 2010). Where the family can be seen as a social system by other parts of society. However, along with the development and dynamics of the times, there is a shift in culture and community values due to new challenges that did not
exist before. So that the role of the wife in the family and society has changed, if in the past the wife was only responsible for domestic needs, then her development was then not a few wives who worked outside the home on the grounds that the husband's income was considered inadequate in meeting family needs. Especially during the Covid-19 pandemic where there was a decline in the income of the head of the household (Buchorie, 2006).
Antap Village, Selemadeg District, Tabanan Regency, is located in the southern sea coast of Bali Island. The background of the people in the village work as rice farmers, daily laborers, entrepreneurial fishermen, and tourism workers. During the Covid-19 pandemic, especially tourism workers, they were so affected that they turned to work as day laborers, farmers or entrepreneurs, but in meeting the needs of daily life their income was not enough. So that the responsibility for fulfilling the needs of family life is not only delegated to the head of the family, but also to the wives who help fulfill their daily needs (Mulyanto, 2006). From these conditions, the role of the wife and housewife is very necessary to help the family economist.

The second level of the family's economy is low, especially due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, making the participation or participation of housewives in the hope of helping husbands in poverty and covering family needs.
Responding to the problem of the low family economy in the area, the women's dual role initiative greatly helps the family economy by taking advantage of the availability of existing jobs and Natural Resources (SDA), which is a form of cooperative relationship between the father as the head of the family and the wife as a housewife. .
