Rythm, You are out of track here, so you better keep your 2 cents with yourself. You may need it for your rainy days (god forbids). sajhauser, You sound like 16. No offence if you are not. Girl Interrupted, I am not against women rights. However after much research and thoughtful analysis, I have come to a point that right person should be at the right place. While there are quite a few career oriented women who had me in awe with their vision, shrewdness and workaholicness, there are plenty of others who work just for the namesake. I worked in Nepal India and Srilanka. I have been working in US, Canada and Europe. My experience in itself is worth a research report. Most of the women don't make a good career person. The trend is more prominent in south asia which is understandable since our culture demands more from women in the social and family front. Women in west look more sophisticated, intellectual and determined explicitly, but from inside they are no stronger than a lady from rolpa. I, personally, would prefer a nepali maoist woman to career oriented white lady for marriage. At least they are daring. All in all, it boils down to the fact that with equality, women are coming forward, great! But at the same time they are putting more pressure on themselves for having to deliver which most of them fail to. My advice to women, work but work in low profile and give more time to the family and society where most of them are good at. I know this subject is offending but I have no hesitation in pointing at the truth. Good Day!
