Life back then was full of comparisons between two opposite statuses. Boys against girls. Rich against poor ones. Famous people against the simple ones. Wow. Just wow. This was how life ran. There was no such word as equality. Compared from the past to now, when it comes to equality and opportunities, the difference is just about the size of the earth. That's how it differs.
Boys versus girls. Girls back then was known just for indoors. They were not able to do heavy things. They were just for cooking, washing dishes and clothes. and cleaning inside the house, mending clothes, and all other indoor chores. That's it! Just like that. And the boys were the breadwinners! Their family depended on them. They were the only ones who finds job for their family needs. Only they can do works such as driving, plumbing, fixing broken things, axing woods, and all. Only boys. But that was back then. But now, in this generation, it is totally different that it would make people from the past drop their jaws. There's this thing called equal rights and opportunities now. Now, we can see girls plumbing, driving a car for hire, working in a construction site. And many boys today are washing their clothes, washing dishes, cleaning the house, ironing clothes, and all. Amazing isn't it? Also, in this generation, woman also became our president like Cory Aquino and Gloria Arroyo. Women can also enter into political society. That's what we call Girls' Power.
Rich versus poor. All big things came from small things. They say, money makes the world go round. Money can control everything. It can control justice and lives. But not now. Today, the poor ones are given the chance to get the justice they are searching for. Many volunteers are now helping the poor ones fet what tgey deserve to have. That's how life is goin on today.
It is nice to live in a world with equal rights and equal opportunities.
