6.It has become acceptable for people to say that women work less than men and therefore deserve less!It may have been true in the past when women were expected to stay at home and look after children,but women have changed over the years.They have"come out"!Gone are the days when they toiled in the kitchen all day long; they are now aware of their needs and are willing to fight for them.They expect to be given the respect they deserve,both at home and at work.They have realized their intellectual potential and have determined to do something about it!
Women on two wheels have become a familiar sight on the roads of most Asian countries during the past few years.It is common to find a woman taking her children on her bicycle to school and then reach her office in time.She has become a major part in family decisions in every aspect and how those decisions are carried out.It would have been unimaginable a few years ago!
It is rather difficult to combine a career and a decent home life,"super woman"though she is.She needs to feel supported and fulfilled.She may arrive at work feeling as if she has already done a full day's work.If colleagues doubt her commitment to her job,she will feel sad.At the same time,women of today expect their partners to cbntribute towards childcare and household chores.
Today's women are learning to avoid situations that make them feel more stressed and it is a hard struggle.Despite all this,the new woman,"the superpower"has arrived.She still believes in the power and value of a family unit and she holds it in high esteem(尊重).
