"I often wonder how far society has really come in equalising the rights of women as much as those of men. There are still insufficient representation of women in our parliament, churches, businesses, state institutions etc. etc. No more is sexism so apparent than in any society or place where there is no employment to be had outside the home for either man or woman. Yet, even there, where work is required to maintain the running of the family home, it is largely carried out by the woman under man's watchful eye. Just as our women folk have been telling us for centuries, 'A woman's work is never done,' some might hold the view that a man's is rarely started." William Forde: June 29th, 2013.
