What are your thoughts on house husbands?

I think that it is fine to have house husbands because this also shows that they care for the family and want to stay at home to take care of them I think that is ridiculous because men, which is seen to be the more stronger gender, thus man should be working than being househusbands. However, If the husband wants to stay at home and cook. They could as well do it. I have no objection.

Most of the higher positions in a company are held by man. What do you feel? Maybe it is a thought already instilled in people that men should take up higher positions. However, there should be more opportunities opened up for women
!

Neutral. Although men have better work qualities in my opinion

Why do you think there is a better status of women in a developed country than developing country? There is a better understanding of sexism in a developed country ...Developing countries such as Africa have less time to worry about psychological things like gender equality ...Women in developed countries are more likely to be educated. This gives them the idea of equality, which they have the ability to fight for
