Hello everybody,

I was just wondering whether people think that women in their country are happier now than the women of your grandmother´s generation?

I do not think women are happier now.They have to struggle in this society,this cruel society.They have heavier stress.They face work family or lonely.Wemen like to shopping when they are bored or happy or even sad.I think they most happy women are the mothers.To them,it is they most happy thing is playing with their little baby when they put everything away.

I think this generation of women have more oportunities because   they can be mothers, daughters, wifes, have a job, be students these reasons help her to be happier. In last times they have more dificults with the life because had few posibilies they was only housewifes.

should be yes!! 'coz now we have lots of chance to get our idea..such as job, career, education, living single or not. In my country, eldest generation had different function between man and woman. Man had  task primarily to get money for hisfamily (external area) and woman had tasks to do all jobs in internal area/home. Beside that, woman had no chance to choose whatever she likes. Woman should had taken a man who had been given by her parents. But after one of our woman hero "Kartini" brought her great idea about "emancipation"...we , woman in Indonesia, has been getting free to choose whatever we like…highest education, good job, best career, and choose who right man for our soul mate…

I think women are happier today because they are free of make a decision. Women now are doing everything, they have excellent jobs, they do what they want to do!! there are female doctors, engineers, even senators!! In contrast to yesterday's women who use to stay at home to serve the dinner. took care about their childs and used to wait their husbands.
