GENDER EQUALITY (IV)

GENDER EQUALITY (IV) She had a fantastic Career Dream.  She worked so hard and studied up to Masters Degree level.  She got married to you and, your Decree got announced reads: “Your duty in this house is to be indoors as a House-Wife; have babies and bring them up. Your office is that kitchen. I take only fresh meals. No refrigeration. I make enough money to take care of your needs. Don’t argue  with me! You can leave if you wish to. Period!” Oh! Why? That’s Gender Discrimination! Who told you that a Career Woman can’t make and keep a a good Home? Why must she be the one to have and take care of the babies, do the cooking and the laundry as if she is a launder-Woman? Why can’t she socialize like you? Why must you be the only one gallivanting all over the world? Why can’t she pursue, develop and be happy in her chosen field/profession? We say NO to Gender Based Discrimination. Enough is Enough!
