The world seems to be always full of malice toward women, because we are girls, so we are enduring the pain. What have women done wrong? While reading this book, my heart was deeply hurt. Meet the Cambodian girl Sree. Meena Hasina and Usha Naranya of India are poor and backward countries with very backward ideas and extremely malicious intentions towards women. However, most people choose to swallow their anger and face threats. The brave people who stand up to fight are worthy of our admiration, and their courage is worth learning from. Gender is never a reason for bullying, reject gender discrimination, and be equal to men and women.
Although I am sitting in the spacious and bright library of the university at this moment, receiving higher education and trying to realize my self-worth on my own life path, we can easily forget that countless distant places and countless people are related to me. In this book, the authors, Pulitzer Prize winners Nicholas D. Christopher and Shirley Dunn, use words to reveal the plight of women who are not valued: sexism, sexual violence, misogynistic values, domestic violence, virginity complex, etc., Allowing us to re-examine the current gender dilemma and understand the reality we face.
At that time, Guangdong Province was the center of China's economic boom, and factories were springing up everywhere. When we stepped into these factories, we finally saw their whereabouts. Like noisy beehives of female bees, these factories produce the shoes, toys and shirts that fill American shopping malls, delivering economic growth that China has never seen before - and creating one of the most effective anti-poverty programs ever recorded. In factories in coastal areas of China, 80% of employees on assembly production lines are women, and in East Asia, women also account for at least 70% of manufacturing production lines. Asia's economic development is mainly a natural result of the substantial economic empowerment of women. "Their fingers are smaller and better suited for sewing," the manager of a women's handbag factory explained to us. "They are well-behaved and obedient and work harder than men," said the owner of a toy factory. "And we can pay them lower wages."
After reading this book, I burst into tears. This is a deeply touching novel. The story tells the encounter and exchange between humans and alien life, showing friendship and understanding across cultures and races. The author depicts the emotions and inner world of each character with delicate writing style, allowing readers to resonate with their fate. This book triggers deep thinking about the meaning of human existence, the mysteries of the universe, and human emotions. It is a work full of philosophy and emotion that can touch the readers' hearts.
The last thing women should do is to have a narrow vision. This book is a window that allows us to see the broader world of women. Based on real data and examples, it writes about the status and struggles of women in the world's women's movement. It is very good. Much better than boring doctrine
This book allowed me to see the plight of women and their struggles. It was really shocking! I especially hate those who discriminate and treat women violently, but I admire the women in the book who bravely fight for the dignity of life. This book is very detailed and helped me understand that world better. I think everyone should read it and do their bit to help women in need.
Everyone should read this book.
Women are sometimes synonymous with suffering, and have been so since ancient times.
Only focusing on what is right in front of you will make your vision narrow. Everyone should read this book.
Thank you so much. It is very comprehensive, and it tells about the unimaginable obstacles encountered in the implementation of many good ideas, which is quite practical.
