Gender Roles in DR?
Hi Everyone,
I was just wondering what the gender roles are typically like in the DR.
For us here in Canada, they are constantly changing, but there is a huge pull for equal rights where women are concerned. We are not seen as lesser than a man.....well for the most part I mean.....It's also normal for women to be working full time, even when kids are in the picture......and though I still hear jokes about it, women are not always expected to be in the kitchen cooking for their husbands, have dinner waiting on the table, we are not expected to have the house spick and span clean, nor are we expected to wait on our man hand and foot (like they are kings of the castles.....hahahahaa thats funny)
As I am a woman I want to know what I should expect when I arrive, in general.
If you could let me know that would be awesome!!
Thanks in Advance!
