Emancipation of women is a myth?

Question

Why isn't it a myth?

Answer 1

Legal and financial emancipation has taken place in many countries. The right to vote, to own property, the right to be paid the same salary if they are doing the same job, etc. And some major religious prophets of the past have also tried to grant women more rights and freedoms.

But there are still plenty of men in the world who become furious at the idea that women could be anything other than their property. In some countries they keep women down legally by giving all the rights to the husband and enacting truly horrendous penalties against women who don't obey. In countries where women have legal rights already they try to keep them down socially by casting them as either objects to be used for men's pleasure or constantly telling them how evil they are for not being good mothers and wives or restricting their religious rights.

There are plenty of men who respect women but as long as there are plenty who hate women there will be a struggle in some area - social, legal, financial, religious.

Answer 4

In a way it is Mythological, Because some women gave all the could to make this situation come about.... And many men and children are alive to-day because of the care that they received from a good women... Now no  matter how some men feels about the emancipation of women... You have to ask yourself where would we be without them.. Now personally My mother manage to have 10 children, 5 boys and 5 girls and she manage to hold her family together and still maintain her career as a Medical Doctor... Now that took a great deal of mental and psychical strength...  And now some men are angry at a woman like that who helped other woman fight for emancipation..... Now that does border on the brink of insanity............................

Answer 5

Today, women have all the rights and nearly all the responsibilities as men.  They are no longer considered the property of the father or husband, are considered competent to testify in court, have a political voice in elections, and may even serve in combat roles in the US military.
