women today

Times when women were just sitting at home and caring the families have long gone . Nowadays more and more women begin to participate in the social work which they would never do before . Though women declare that they want to be equal to men , but the fact shows that they are even better than men in some areas as what they do has proved . Women's ability has been recognised by the society and some women are even playing a more important part than men do . Women today are much different from what they were in the past . They are independent , stronger in mind and self respected .
However , even the women have been liberated from house work long ago and they don't have the obligation to take it any more , they are still supposed to it . Women are still thought to be a homemaker by general people , even some women themselves . So that it is very common to hear the complains from women . After work they have to prepare dinners for their husbands while the husbands can enjoy everything they like . What's worse , women can be much busier after they have children . I think this may be an important reason why people nowadays get married later and later . The physical character that women can give birth to children and the nature to care children might contribute to this situation .
When thinking about the most familiar women , my mom , I find a exception . My mom used to have a job , but quit it when she was told that it was going to reduce the staff without even considering to complete . She stays at home and is content to be a homemaker . She acts just like the standard women in the old times . So my point is that even women are much more different now , there are still some traditional women just like my mom . Women's status are changing , but some old concepts still remain in people's mind and do not want to leave .

  2. As a consequence of sex-role revolution, women's ststus become higher than before. In china, maybe it is true. However, in some western countries, the situtation has not existed. what's more, in some countries women work outside to support the family while men do the housework at home.
