Just 51 years ago, women had no right to vote, which showed the dominant male chauvinism in chilean society of those times. Now if we look around, we see that the female sex has a large representation and accountability at the level of nation, represented by the first woman president of Chile, with the previous government.
This change we are still living is about two things mainly, wich are higly intercoennected: 1.- Women have struggled to get protagonism in this society; 2.- The society is being more tolerant and open to change and difference.
In the past, household tasks was divided between mens and womens in established way. Women were housewives, and they should be more actives in their children formation and education. While men were those who maintained the home, "providing money and food". Now, however, these roles are shared, although this difference is still visible, but less so than years ago. Like these roles home, have also changed or, rather, are sharing the job roles. It is increasingly common to see women in senior positions, which was previously unthinkable.
This, in my opinion, is a good thing, and that society can function in a better way, taking both points of view (male and female) when take decisions.
Finaly, I would say that this is not a battle won yet, since much remains so that there is total equality between both sex.
Only with time we will see if this can be achieved.
