[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you’re incorrect. I think it comes down to the fact that American women can earn money and aren’t interested in providing free labor for others. I’d argue people in your village didn’t have good opportunities, including even leisure activities, and were expected to provide unpaid labor. [/quote] Individualism mindset. Refusal to help each other even though it is what is best for everyone. “Free Labor” you mean helping out your family members??? [/quote] DP I would consider that free labor as it mostly falls unfairly to women who are treated as "less than" - in other cultures and in ours. [/quote]
