Having equal rights comes from being equal, in education, intelligence, wealth, jobs etc. If woman want to be treated equally we need to step up to the plate and make ourselves heard. Staying home and having babies might be lovely and sweet but it's not what makes us equal. Earning money is what makes us equal. No money, no power. If a man is the breadwinner and he wants to throw you butt out on the street he can do so. Every woman should be able to support herself and her kids alone. This way if something happens, death, divorce she doesn't have to reley on a man to help.
