I very much agree with that statement. I do think it´s wrong to base someones quality on how educated or successful they are in their careers. Seems very shallow of people to ask shortly upon meeting you what it is that "you do" (referring to career).

That being said, I also think it´s wrong to assume a working mother would be any less of a mother because she has a career.

I think it is the best of both worlds to have the choice, and that is where the non equality of women comes from. The fact that men have ALWAYS had the choice.

Yes merih, the woman is the "host" and the one giving birth, but she did not get pregnant alone, and should be allowed the very same options as the othe responsible party

It is not a difficult question what I would do if I had all the money in the world. Work is the wrong answer.   But hey, I don´t have children so that question will never be my problem. Probably all you mothers can´t understand but I never wanted children and not for a second I regret that decision. 

The equality issue comes down to this….do I…as a woman, have the same opportunities as a man if I choose to pursue a career or educational opportunities?  

Do I have the right, in my own home, to make decisions with my partner and not be told what is what?

Do I have the same freedoms and choices as any man?

If not, then I am not on equal standing and that is the problem that women around the world are facing everyday. 

Well you didn´t quite clear things up for me as I was so hoping I thought you would have something to say, proving that the man could just as well as the woman be dominant parent, Even if not actually birthing the child.......

so what I will take away from this is that there is no better parent then mother!

(I do so agree with that)

 I do totally agree, with all my heart, and I think that´s why to make a child you need two people (traditional ways of course), as it is very difficult for a single mum to handle everything.  All kind of responsibilites should be shared.

But this thread started as, the woman rights and woman equality is based on working woman, and educated woman...  I am very happy with the reality of the working woman, and I do think they are almost always much more successful than males, and they should be appreciated more.

What I don´t like is the attitude of these women who think that they can talk for me like I don´t have the ability to talk for myself or even to make a choice of working or not, and that i am a slave if I take care of my family, and i am uneducated if I am not working, and blah blah...

 Choice is a beautiful thing isn´t it!!! 

The problem is taht we are still thinking by the male-structured values. Raising children is not something that men do much of, therefore it is not seen as a worthwhile task. The society does not value raising children as important, well-paid job (as it should be valued). Raising children IS a very important part of live and it should be given an appropriate social value, because at this point, it is seen as unpaid, ungrateful women´s work.

Why ´traditional ways of course´?

I agree.  But how can you decide about it at looking at how many woman senators are there in a country?  Or how many working woman? Does it tell all?  Pakistan was the first country to have a female Prime Minister, does it mean, women equality is there?

I respect and appreciate..  Thanks
