From reading all these texts a theme that they all talk about is women’s equality and how it’s unfair the way their being treated. As we all aware man tempt to dominates women when it comes to power use. A man rather leads and wants women to follow along without complaints. But there an end to everything, today you can tell me what to do but the next I meant to disagree. and from that day on that’s when I will fight to make a change.
Based on these readings, the primary issue that concerns feminists in the late 1960s and early 1970s was the women’s expectation to follow one path. They expect females’ to get married at a young, start a family, and apply for her role in life as homemaking. At the time society did not expect much from a woman because she’s there for her husband or children. Being someone’s wife means you are spending almost 24 hours straight on domestic chores. Individuals’ wives did not have control over anything and were subject to their husband’s heads and master laws. Wives did not have any rights to their husband’s property or earing while husbands do have control over theirs.
An author called Maynard wrote a piece called “The Politics of Housework”(1970) and part of it states, “What? You say this is all trivial? Wonderful! That’s what | thought. It seems perfectly reasonable. We both had careers, both had to work a couple of days a week to earn enough to live on, so why shouldn’t we share the housework? .So | suggested it to my mate and he agreed most men are to hip to turn you down flat.” This is something that’s a concern to me because back in my Country Niger, Females believe that there no such thing as a wife helping their husband out with bills it’s all on him. His money is her money, but her money is not his. I don’t understand why is it like that when we both are couples.
