Adam Saidi Discussion #7

One thing I want to talk about is how women are treated in society, we have always been reminded of our role as women, and whatever we do is never enough, it’s so tiring to be controlled and watched by everyone that we should be doing this or shouldn’t be doing this, especially when you come from a cultural and religious family which make things harder especially in my country, Women in my country l are often confined to unpaid care and household work, but often have little decision-making power in the traditional household dynamic. Strict gender norms – particularly in the religious city leave women with limited resources to pursue new business opportunities. In addition to traditional norms that are being kept, the lack of education and illiteracy prevents women from advancing. Many families instead send boys to school. Many girls that still go to school tend to drop out early, often due to drivers like marriage or early pregnancy. But I am glad that this generation is doing their best to make a change even though it’s hard and we get criticized a lot.
