From Stone Age till now of course we can watch a history of women’s Lib step by step: Actually women are fighting in Germany for to participate in leadership of big companies – mostly a male domain. We have some female ministers in Germany – and the chancellor / prime minister Angel Merkel is a woman too. But there is still necessary that EQUAL PAY movement, even in Germany! In some Arabian countries the women are fighting for a human right to drive a car. In India feminism makes alarm versus the killing of female babies (dowry death). In other nations mothers are fighting for food or even water. It’s sad to watch so many different levels!

I am glad the womens movement did have an effect for working girls back then. When the husbands or men went off to war, it gave the women the opportunity to work. It also took them from their children and other family obligations. I am at a toss of which is better in today’s times…it seems to me that woman cannot do it all as your wife does know. I find it hard to do all I do each day and work. Great post!!

The only reason you could not be a 1965 housewife has to do with the accident of year of your of birth. Trust me on that.

It’s a good movement not only for female but also male because some women have a great skill and leadership.
