Since women weren’t allowed to be as free as the men they were forced to learn how to only live inside their homes. Kamila notices that money is running out, she knows that her as the oldest one has to find a way to get money coming in the home. She can’t attend an elite university like she planned too due to the Islamic rules, so while sitting for days thinking for a way to work from inside her home, she finally has a brilliant idea. She decided to become a seamstress. Not only would she able to work from her living room but her sisters would be able to help too.
She was the princess of the house and that is how everyone treated her. I tried to make Adele help me to raise the children while I took care of their father since his condition started to deteriorate. My cousins, Diana and Mary moved into our new house along with their husbands and children. By that time Edward grew sicker and blinder while Adele never found time to care for Edward Jr. and Mary
Their desire for self-improvement was evident in their quest to be educated. Most were self-educated and they also sought economic autonomy. This was a significant difference between the black and white women of the antebellum era. The white women continued to be taken care of their husbands and family and continued with their comfortable lives; however the black women, survivors of slavery, out of the need for survival, drew strength from the horrific treatment they endured as slaves. The desire to become educated motivated the black women to learn to read, develop an understanding of the white woman’s culture, and work to support themselves as they developed skills that would prove to be invaluable.
The Women's Rights movement, also known as "Women's Libbers," told women not to waste their time taking care of their homes and families, and they were too smart for that. They proclaimed that women had a "choice" not to be housewives now thanks to them. They said women could be anything they wanted to be, and they would find fulfillment in jobs outside of the home. Many women seemed to want to have jobs outside of the home, leaving their children, even very young babies, in day care centers. Older children were also in day care or on their own.
They were shocked that she was taking over this role because the women’s job was to simply take care their husbands and children. Eliza Lucas proved to many that women have the ability of doing it all she directed the planting of crops, paid the bills and oversaw the selling of the crops and she would also make time to do the traditional tasks such as attending teas, visiting the sick and learning how to dance and play piano (9). She chose to not follow the traditional roles and in turn empowered
I believe that this had a great impacted the society, mostly women. This was because women back in the 1800’s were only considered to be house wives, looking after the children, cooking for the family and cleaning their houses. Many women didn’t have the opportunity to do everything or even have everything that Marie did. Many of them couldn’t even go to school because they had to stay home to help their mothers with the house. After she made that comet discovery she gave hope to all women and showed them that they can do whatever they want even if only men have done it before.
Between the two responses, I don’t really see a difference in their answers. I believe it quite comparable to most people. Listening to my mom’s response finally got me thinking about what my expectations are and wondering if they will change. I honestly hope to become the woman she is, and I’d have the same goals in life for my family as she does. Fortunately my boss is also her boss and I’m basically at the point where she began as
Rise of Women In between the 1820’s to 1860’s women were confined to the private sphere of every community, expected to raise children and care for their home while their husbands were off at work or partaking in social events with other men. This lifestyle was not for those who wanted to change their sphere of influence for the betterment of their family, leading to a more active role in society. Women were socially bound by an ideal known as the cult of domesticity or True Womanhood which promoted four values, piety, purity, submission, and domesticity. These values then privatized options for work, education, and reform support for women. That along with an argument that women were biologically inferior when it comes to politics and
Like her I had to somewhat grow up without a father figure and become the “mom” of the household. She is definitely a character I can relate to. I find Katniss very unselfish because when the draw to chose the players for the Games came around, she took her sisters place to participate. I consider myself unselfish because I would go out of my way to
