The given statement might have been correct long ago,
perhaps till the end of the last century. In so far as the
family was the unit and the bringing forth and rearing of
children rested on the women’s shoulder, her place was
always relegated to the home. She played many roles,

course they are not hardy as men but that does not mean
they do not have a strong heart. In fact, they are stronger
than men in certain aspects in that they are able to stand
physical hardships. In their make up they are equipped for
