It is always thought that women are the second class in citizen, and men are the first. There is not
real equality of opportunity for men and women. Years ago, people were living in a man-dominated society.
Women had to obey their husbands and fathers absolutely. Women’s place was in the kitchen and
women’s work was housework. In many places, women were not even allowed to go to school. Women
had no rights, even the right to choose a husband for themselves. Men usually occupied high positions in
society so they thought they were intelligent and important than women. Men considered women their
property. Sometimes, women were mistreated by their husbands and suffered this as a fate. Many parents
did not even want to have female children.
Thanks to the women’s liberation movement, women have nowadays proved that they are equal
to men on every aspect. An average woman has weaker muscles than an average man but she may be
as intelligent as him. Women can do everything that men can, and women can do one thing that no man
can; they produce children.
