Work, Marriage, Duties, etc.

Do lots of women work in your country? Are they able to get a good education, and thus a good professional job? If they work, do men/husbands share the work at home?In the USA now, over 50% of women work outside the home. Men in this generation help at home; for instance, my son-in-law is an excellent cook. I have even told him to think about starting a restaurant! Woo! Woo! I would go there all the time.And here in the USA, men help taking care of the children, but they don't do much ofthe cleaning. That seems to fall on the woman......that is not good, especially if she has worked a long day and is probably tired.Are there women in government positions in your country? Hillary Clinton came close to winning the nomination to run for President here, but Barack Obama got the nomination. And then, happily, he won!!! Good news for our country. It appears that he and Michelle are equal partners in their marriage......that now seems to be the norm in the USA for their generation.What about your country???

  • Most women in our country stay at home taking care of their families and their husbands shoulder the responsibility of earning enough money to support their familiy. And most of them do not help to do the housework. Although things have change a lot in recent years for the young educated generation have grown to become the backbone of our country. They are willing to share the housework with theire wife. Thus, most young women go out to work just as their husbands. some of them even make greater achievements in their careers than their husbands.
  • It depends on how much a person are reasonable and caring, how much he is educated, what social class he has and etc. There are both kinds of men. Some are helping and some not.
  • I guess women are often more obedient. Or should I say men aren't enough obedient. :-)
