A wind of change - Need of the hour!

This is not my original work, I simply compiled it! One of my colleague shared this wonderful article by Chetan Bhagat.

I am re blogging it because I felt the urge to spread this message. 
Our society is still full of men who feel women are only meant for cooking!
I really appreciate those men who believe that cooking aint only the job of a woman!

Just read it! It will light up your day and make you feel worthy.  You can pass it along to your friends, wives, girlfriends, husbands as well J

My mother worked for 40 years. My wife is the COO at an international bank. It makes me proud. She doesn't make phulkas for me. We outsource that work to our help, and it doesn't really bother me. If my wife had spent her life in the kitchen, it would have bothered me more.

One,

a man who marries a career woman gets a partner to discuss his own career with. A working woman may be able to relate better to organizational issues than a housewife. A spouse who understands office politics and can give you good advice can be an asset.

Two,

a working woman diversifies the family income streams. In the era of expensive apartments and frequent lay-offs, a working spouse can help you afford a decent house and feel more secure about finances.

Three,

a working woman is better exposed to the world. She brings back knowledge and information that can be useful to the family. Whether it's the latest deals or the best mutual fund to invest in, or even new holiday destinations, a working woman can add to the quality of life.

Four,

the children of a working woman learn to be more independent and will do better than mollycoddled children.

Five,

working women often find some fulfillment in their jobs, apart from home. Hence, they may have better life satisfaction, and feel less dependent on the man. This in turn can lead to more harmony.

We must accept and even celebrate our successful women. They take our homes ahead and our country forward. We may have less hot phulkas, but we will have a better nation and a better world to live in!
