InĀ āAge, Race, Class, and Sex: Women Redefining Differenceā by Audre Lorde (1980), there is one point that really touch me, which is womenĀ didn’tĀ had much rights to independence of themselves. Men overseen women as housewives, such as remaining in the household, cleaning, taking care their children, and other housework chores they must do.Ā But in our time period the level between men and women startĀ change, there is men that start stay home doĀ cleaning, taking care their children, and other housework, and women go out to work, people respect toĀ each other, but somehow still have people stay at the same not because they want to, maybe they learn from older, or learn from their experience, everyone to beĀ equalĀ that is impossible.

I appreciated my post had touched you in a way. Although, I do completely agreed from your points regarding the opposite effect, which is rather than women being housewives, they provide everything from working for their husband now. Whilst the men, nowadays are the ones being at home, which people had came up a name for men who remain at home. They’re called “housemen.” The roles had somehow changed over the years due to one’s inability to no longer work or other reasonings such as what you stated, “maybe they learn from older, or learn from their experience.”
