In this paper, I went ahead and addressed my culture, the roles and struggle that women face on a daily basis. I also talked about my nuclear family and the roles that both my parents adopted when they resided from Africa to America. As for the American culture, I did get a chance to witness and explore how the role of women has developed into today’s society. With both comparisons, I was able to analyse the quote, who said and why it was said. From a sociological perspective, I narrowed down exactly to why these women’s roles have been modified due to societal changes and historical events. My opinions, experiences, and future expe

American women carry on different lifestyles as they did a century ago. Being exposed to American women, its so much easier to anticipate the various positions they are capable of accomplishing. An American women successfully plays roles such as construction worker, plumber, bus driver, pilot, and even take up high regarded positions as CEO of a profound business. Positions that were intended for men were taken up by women and resulting in great achievements.

In conclusion, Women’s roles have been developed within time due to historical and chronicle events. To be a woman in general, it’s a gift that compliments the significance of a man. Whether to willingly be a housewife, a career woman or both it is equally accepted amongst the American public. Women have come to America from many countries to obtain the same equality of men and that’s what defines an American women, which is far from a shame. I hope that within time that what is perceived as the women’s role will productively increase with acceptance for success and prosperity, not only in America but also in other countries.

I came from an underdeveloped country located in the eastern horn of Africa, Eritrea. During the thirty-year civil war, both my parents served their time to fight for their country’s independence. This was a very critical moment in the production of women’s participation in political involvement for their country. For example, many young women that were raised by housewife mothers to become a housewife also chose to sacrifice their lives and plans to join the men in the battlefield for the sake of their country. This is the first time Eritrea women have taken this challenge to represent for their country amongst men, when they were not presumed and trained to. My mother happened to be one of these courageous women to take such a chance. Both my parents met in the war and got married. A couple of years later, my mother was pregnant with me and so my father took her to his family and by that time, they both decided to leave the war and have a family. At the time and even still now in most cases, most women are housewives in my culture. They fulfil all the housework duties and take care of their children while the father goes out and seeks employment to provide for the family. The roles are divided in such specific means in a majority of households in Eritrea. Marriages were definitely arranged and usually the groom would have been wealthy or have saved money to take care of family. Due to certain exception with education, there are few women that carry on careers outside the homes and still fulfil household duties such as teachers and nurses to name a few.

Going back to the basis of this paper, the fellow student that made the following comment “ Women nowadays are so Americanized, it’s a shame” was from a Latino male. He was brought up in a culture where women worked within the home and served their men. He was adjusted to that culture, yet when exposed to the American culture, he felt women’s independence was overrated. He felt that women are not as respectful to men as they used to in the past. Due to the fact that women have rights in America, they have disintegrated from their primary role, which in this case is attending to their men. The student also mentioned how it was a shame, which is a
