In my continuing efforts to improve my German language compreshension, I keep reading articles from Der Spiegel, on line. Some times, I print them so that I can mull over it with a dictionary.
When I printed this article a week ago or so, I had forgotten about the significance of today. Today, I thought that it was appropriate to write something on the article is about.
The title of the article is "A conscious cliche".
It goes on to say that more the scientists and researchers dig to find out the mental and intellectual differences between the sexes, more do the differences fade and the similarities show up.
One scientist found that there were differences between men and women in a fifth of the 124 activities researched. Most of those differences stemmed from physical differences (Larger muscle mass among males) rather than cerebral or mental or intellectual differences.
It goes on to explain that most of the perceived differences are due to social expectations and upbringing and such things. Many of the social expectations turn out to be self fulfilling prophecies.
This, hopefully, will be widespread knowledge soon and help women all over the world and over all strata realise their true potential.
I also read an article that said that India has one of the most powerful womens movements in the world. This must make the Indian wome proud and invigorate them.
It is good to end this small piece with a joke.
If women want equality with men, they are not ambitious enough.

ReplyDeleteGuess what? I used Google's language tool to read the article you'd mentioned here!!
{By the way, I remember watching That '70s show and the producers of the show said that Wisconsin was a fictional state! And here, in this article, I get to read about Janet Hyde from University of Wisconsin!!!}
