Women are exploited and face oppression every day. In the workplace women are forced into low paying, insecure and unskilled jobs. Women's problems do not stop at the workplace.
When we come home they have to face another shift of housework with little help from their husbands or boyfriends.
If this is not enough, women have to deal with violence. Thousands of women a year are raped, beaten or emotionally abused.
Conservatives argue that women's oppression is natural. They say that women are biologically inferior to men. For example, right- winger's say that women are less intelligent than men are or less capable of doing certain tasks. There is no evidence that women are inferior to men.
The root of women's oppression lies in the division of society into classes.
Women's oppression is in the direct interest of capitalism and the State. By giving women the worst work, with no job security and low wages, the bosses create a super- cheap workforce, which they can hire and fire at will.
Some people say that women must accept their inferior position in society because it is part of their culture. This is very problematic. Women play an important part in their culture. Women have the right to strive for liberation within in their own cultures. Women have the right to shape and change the cultures to which they belong.
If something in a culture oppresses women, we oppose it- just like we oppose anything that oppresses women.
Thus, I believe that for behind every succesful man is a woman. Woman plays a vital role in the society. Its a give and take relationship. Im not a sexist or anything, but society's norm is the make is the superior sex. In today's times there are a lot of succesful woman. So I believe that man and women should be treated equal in terms of job, labor force and place in the society.
