Even though I do not neslecarisy agree with the feminism issue and how it is portrayed in only black and white and shaded in only one side, I do read many newspaper articles concerning the issue and I particulary like the articles written by Nicholas D. Kristof. Nicholas D. Kristof is an opinion editor who mainly writes about human rights in the third world or underdeveloped countries. Out of the many articles he wrote, there are some articles that particularly talk about women’s right and women’s status in the society.As I did some research, I could find many examples of where women were deprived of rights and were abused both physically and sexually. But these events could be seen often on the history. I believe that these conflicts between women’s rights and cultural heritage are due to external factors and the environment.It is not as though women of East Asia, Europe, or Americas had rights starting from pre-historic times. Most women all around the world were treated about the same. In pre-historic times, the functions of women in the society were to have and raise babies. By medieval times, many women were seen as figures of beauty and started to decorate one self. It is not until recent history in 1919 that women started the movements for right such as suffrage. Every person has a role in society. It would make more sense in both evolutionary and religious and scientific way that male and female are created for a different purpose. Although it may sound cruel, it is true that male and female bodies are designed differently. A female body contains about 10~15% more fat which is needed for a women to have a baby; furthermore male body is designed to sustain more muscles and store carbohydrates for energy use. There should not be complete male dominance over the society but one must realize that division of labor brought a revolution in economics. Similarly, it would be much more productive if male and females divided up the roles that one plays on the society. Although it is true that in some parts of the country males are severely violating primitive rights that a human has, to some extend it is understandable. Furthermore, these actions are actually causing awakening for more and more women of these society. Thus it is an agitator for the people who do not have much interest in the modern politics.Deciding to be a housewife or a high salary is not a poison that only women are enforced. Men have similar choices. According research done by the Oxford University, there are positive correlations between the time spent on job and annual salary. When a person spends more time on a job they earn more, but they will have less time to spend with their family or children. These choices are not unnatural. It is very natural that one has to choose between the job and the family.Human society still had much division between the male roles and female roles in the past. Although, some may argue that these happened because the elders were uneducated and ignorant, but I believe the true ignorant are the people who say that after all the things they had accomplished. | |||
