The other day, in the class, the teacher made a question to the students. The question was: Do you thik housewives should be payed by the state? I remenbered only two or three women said yes. Big suprise!, because in the class there are more women than men.
Some women said that is very complicated, (some men had the same opinion), because housewives not always do work. My question is: why when the subject of the conversetation are the women, many people, even the women theirself have a lot of ojections?
When people decide to change their job, or to lose it, they recibe the unemployment benefit. Nobody think if the people who recibe this subsidy are a millionaire; perhaps they are. In general, it considers (except the more liberal economists), the unploymen has this right.
Please, women! We need to think like a women we are. If we think as men, we never get our freedom, because, the economic sistem established by men don't want it. We need to belive we are important, the things we normaly do, they are important, our feels are also important. And we need to know that the problem is the conomy isn't interested in that. The capitalist economy profer don't pay the bills.

women, stand up and fight 4 ur rights!
I'd like to show you some things about this subject, but when everybody could show their identity!

Women's rights ar much more than be paid for doing houseworks. That means to recognize women's are responsible of doing that.do you think so?
a man.
Ha! Interesting topic MariChuli. I have always thought the worst enemy when we talked about women problems are women indeed. Some of them have a more male mentality than men. I will answer to your question asking you a new question “Might people (men or women) who work everyday and after that, work at home like a housewife, have an extra salary???.
Well, after having thinking about my question Marichuli, more objections to your post. I think you have a wrong point of view. If you want to fight for women’s freedom, PLEASE, don´t try to fight for a salary for housewives. In fact, if women’s freedom can be summarize on a housewives’ salary then I must say you have a “male-chauvinist” mentality. I would fight for same salary as men have doing the same work, I would fight for same rights, for same job opportunities, against male violence (I don´t know if this is a correct translation for “violencia de genero”), etc. But fight for a salary for housewives!!!! Things we (women and men) do at home, like washing, ironing, shopping, sweeping, taking care of the children, etc, etc, is something we all have to do (working or not working). If your husband doesn´t do any of those things at home, then you have a problem, but I don´t think the government should pay you a salary for that (especially because those salaries would come from our taxes and I don´t want to pay taxes for the work your husband doesn´t do). As I have said at the beginning, IF YOU FIGHT FOR WOMEN’S RIGHT, PLEASE, FIGHT FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN HOUSEWIVES’ SALARY.
what about men who work at home?
it doesn't even exist a word for them...
There is more passion than thought for the language in your post. And language requires thought more than passion!
There are a few things I'd change from your text concerning the language. Have a look at these sentences and decide what is wrong:
-Do you thik (SP) housewives should be payed by the state?
-Some women said that (_____) is very complicated
-because housewives not always do work. (???)
-why when the subject of the conversetation are the women, many people, even the women theirself have a lot of ojections? (REVIEW WHOLE SENTENCE, CAREFULLY!!)
-they recibe (SP) the unemployment benefit.
-except (____) the more liberal economists), (0) unploymen has this right.
-because, the economic sistem (SP)established by men don't (??) want it.
-And we need to know that the problem is the conomy isn't interested in that.
HERE ARE SOME OTHER SUGGESTIONS:
-the teacher ASKED a question to HER students.
-Nobody thinkS if the people who RECEIVE this subsidy are (0)millionaire;
-We need to think like THE women we are
-If we think as men, we'LL never get our freedom
-our feelINGs are also important
-The capitalist economy proferS NOT TO pay the bills.
The question of "Housework" should be further debated. It is probably a cultural issue. I'd be for sharing work at home rather than being paid because I want to do a different work than just being a home maker!
If you are worried about these silly things you won't be happy please enjoy the life and don't worry about we say in class because there are some people who behave like anhttp://www.jluiocesar.blogspot.com/other person
Dear Marichuli, It's good, because the topic you chose to open your blog have opened the appetite for writing to many colleagues from English class. Good choose.
