Womens' rights!!

**Nadia_Khan** · 25-01-2008, 18:02

Ok just curious to what you all think, there are many families who do not believe in women working after marriage in due course of their husbands, in laws decisions.

I personally think it's wrong and that every woman has the right to work, although keeping in mind her duties that of course she should fulfil....

...what do the rest of you think ??? any views?

With me, I think its up to her if she wants to work or not. It doesnt bother me much if she works.

I'd actually prefer it if she worked.

I really dont see whats wrong with a woman working after marriage all abit too backwards! my parents even say to those who dont allow it what was the point of them bothering to uni and spend shit loads getting a degree!

Yeah thats nice to know, but nowadays they seem to be going back to the old tradition, besides it's a shame there are alot of narrow minded peeps within the asian community nowadays

as though they're reputation is bound to go downhill if their daughter in law is known to be working, pity!

That's what they mean...you get a educated to get your degree once you have your degree you get the job you've been working hard for! what was the point of all those years studying if your not going to use it

**Rizolicious** · 25-01-2008, 19:47

she is always working ... when she is in the kitchen.

Nothing wrong with women working while in marriage, if she wants to work let her work. In addition what ever money she makes that money is all hers, the husband cannot touch it whatsoever - Islamic point of view.

Having said that women should not neglect their immediate responsibitlies if they have any, such as looking after their children and not neglecting them, nurturing them to grow into best of human beings.

You cannot expect to work while neglecting your children like that, that is injustice upon the children. But if the women can work without neglecting them or having any detrimental effect on the children's upbringing then that is fine no problem go ahead and work away I say.

Yep im with Zero on this one.. id actually prefer somebody who can work and would like her to work so we can be both working partners!

So Nadia.. what do you think you want to do? Work? bit of both? what will have more priority in your case do you think?

Well I'm already working aren't I?!

**Spider Pig** · 25-01-2008, 19:55

yeh thats true, she will need to be the one that has to quit or take a long break from working if you have a child or children, the mothers gota be home for the kids and the father can take care of the bills.

I don't mind but i admire any women who don't.

Call me backward but i think once a child is in it women shouldn't work for at least a number of years. The first few years are crucial imo.
