the role of women in a society..

women play a major role in a society. they are an important part of our economy. I'm not saying so just because I'm one too. I'm saying it because it is true. a women plays several roles at one time. she is a mother, a daughter, a wife, a sister and so on. there was a time when girls were buried alive, but this tradition was finished after Islam came. even today in some places daughters are not considered a good sign. i remember watching a serial on GEO Tv, it was based on the concept that after marriage, only the things that a girl brings is important, not her nature, obedience, or any other good quality is important.
i have heard alot of stories about violence with women. the Pakistani movie "BOL" displayed some issues that are not considered important despite the fact that they are happening every other day. it is happening in the advanced countries as well. Islam has given equal rights to men and women.
if you see today, women are working as doctors, teachers, actresses, they are also working in the corporate world. still a major portion remains at home. some are allowed to work, some are not allowed. there should be a limit to everything, if they are allowed to work, they should keep a check that they do not do anything that is against the dignity of her family.
you see women hosting morning shows, they are seen hosting talk shows, and they are pretty good at it. of course there are some jobs that can not be done by women. there are certain skills that women lack, but i think they can be trained for those skills, they require polishing in certain areas. if women are given proper authority, they can be very beneficial for the economy. i remember reading a case study the other day that mentioned that women are not involved in the IT industry in UK,so they are encouraging women to join that particular field. i think that women should also be encouraged in our society, so that they produce positive results for our economy.
