CHANGES IN WOMEN’S LIVES
For many women life today is different from the life in the time of their
grandmothers. The changes have come very slowly but in many countries
women now take a more active part in society.
Working in factories
During World War I and the World War II many men went away to fight.
This meant that more and more women had to work outside the home. For
many women it was the first time when they were independent and they had
their own money. They were not wealthy but many women were not so poor
as they used to be. At the end of the war they did not want to go back to the
kind of life they used to have.
Voting in elections
In many countries many women also started to fight for the right to vote in
elections and to make political decisions. Their votes were important and
male politicians had to start thinking about what women ask for.
Education for women
Other important changes affected the women’s lives. More girls started to go
to schools. In the past people used to send only their sons to schools. Many
people used to think that education was too expensive to “waste” on girls. In
time governments started to provide education for girls and women were then
able to get better jobs.
Life today
Life for many women has changed but in some places it is still the same as it
used to be 100 years ago. More than half the world’s population is female but
women own less than 10% of the world’s land.
On average women earn 65 % of the salary of men
There are no women in the list of the world’s 100 richest people.
