Have women’s rights changed after 100 years? (video)
Who can understand a woman? Men even don’t try, they simply want to make March 8 a pleasant day for them according to their imagination.
When in 1908 15.000 women took to the streets in New York with the demand to cut down the working day and receive equal salary, perhaps they thought that after 100 years there would be no issue of equal rights. Have they fully succeeded in their fight? In reply to this question the fellow citizens told “A1+”:
“Even judging by salary, in Armenian men are paid more than women, and it itself tells that there are still borders.”
“At present, under these conditions, women carry more burden than men.”
“I am happy that gradually everything is changing for the better, they are seeking independence, they try to achieve everything by overcoming the difficulties. Compared to the previous 10 years, there has been a great change.”
“I think that in Armenia the role of women has increased and of course there has been much progress compared to the last years.”
“Today women’s role is big both in public offices and in general. I think everything is good, we are developing more and more, there have been many changes.”
Irrespective of the existing problems Yerevan is in festive mood today.
