Women's Roles

 "Women are supposed to take care of their homes and families."
Still in the 21st century lots view women as working machines, not in the industrial field but in a reproduction system that is 'merrily' a weapon raised against the extinction of our species and deterioration of the population. There's nothing wrong with relationships that respect the sanctity of life and the roles of members constituting it, and there's no objection on formulating families and doing all duties associated with it. However, viewing woman as second, maybe less, in the world's improvement and bounding their capabilities to being 'house working machines' is not acceptable. It's really offensive to consider women who are half the 7 billion world's population unproductive. And to be specific, it doesn't offend women in particular only who are doing a great job practicing their duty outside their houses, seeking higher education, and being active parts in building the future but also it offends the human mind that was able to go through millions of crisis around the world and was able to create and manipulate subjects in hand to reach top places in advancement and development, and yet was not able to absorb and accept women as equal. Those who are the other half of the population are the ones bringing up the second half. No, I'm not saying women are better than men in raising up a healthy productive community, but what is this second half of the people on earth like without women? Having equality among both sides results a balance in the nature where all people have rights to be parts of the community's enhancement and still every person has his/her specific roles to practice. We should not consider that we are outside the house if one leg is out and the other is in, and similarly we can not consider ourselves developed if our buildings have reached the skies and our cars can fly while our brains are moving backwards. Women can and will do the dishes when they need and want to, but they didn't get educated just to end up doing the dishes unless they decide to do so. Women can take decisions for themselves.
