The progress’s understanding, defined by a neoliberal operation, generated crises that have repercussions on aspects inherent to survival and human dignity, such as housing and food, being victims of progress at any cost that reproduces inequality and hunger. Starting from the house's demand and food such as a right, the article seeks to understand living and eating from a class perspective, recognizing an urban planning engine of the exclusionary logic and the responsibility of women for the quality of family life in the context of “female responsibilities at home”. The methodological path of the study presents as its main action the analytical review of academic publications on the subject, considering critical productions to the formation process and management of cities, mainly with regard to housing and the essential dynamics of urban life. Thus, it is observed that the current city model excludes a large portion of the population with a sieve of class and gender, whose daily life is marginalized, victim of unequal management of the territory. Moreover, by shedding light on the need to rethink the city based on trivial demands, such as housing and food, an incipient city model is put to the test. An urbanism dedicated to rent and gender inequalities reduction creates demands for caring cities: the population needs with its essential demands to be at the center of the debate and the plan.
