themselves. Men usually occupied high positions in society, so they thought they were more
intelligent than women. Men often considered women as their property. Sometimes, they were
mistreated by their husbands and suffered the problem as a fate. Many parents did not even want to
have female children.

day including working in offices and doing countless household chores without any help from their
husbands.
