　　People like to say, “The hand rocks the cradle rules the world.” Or they say, “Behind every successful man, there is a woman.”

　　Now some women still like making their husbands and sons successful. But some women want more for themselves. They want good jobs. When they work, they want more pay. They want to be as successful as men.

　　Today the best jobs are still given to men. Even when women do the same work, they are often paid less than men. Some women want these things changed. They want to stand beside the men, with the same chances for success.

　　Now many American women are earning money outside their homes. More than half of the women at the age of eighteen to sixty-five have got jobs. In general, working women have had more education than those who stay at home.

　　Among women with jobs, eight out of ten drive a car to work; and most of them often spend their holidays away from home. They like traveling by air. Women's work has made several changes in women's lives and in men's lives, too.

　　But things are quite different from those in the Middle East countries. In the Middle East countries, women have to stay at home. Their duty is to look after their families and do all the housework. They can't find work outside. When they go out in public, they cover their faces with something and walk behind their husbands.
