Comparative comparison of how women are burdened today more than they were in the past

Women have traditionally taken on more responsibility in the domestic sphere, but in recent years, this burden has increased significantly. There are several reasons for this trend, including changes in gender roles, economic factors, and societal expectations.

One of the most significant changes in gender roles is the increasing number of women who are working outside the home. While this has created new opportunities for women, it has also led to a "second shift" of domestic responsibilities when they return home from work. Women are still expected to take on the majority of the housework and childcare, even when they work full-time jobs.

In addition to these gendered expectations, economic factors have also contributed to the increased burden on women. The rising cost of living has made it necessary for many families to have two incomes, and women often bear the brunt of the additional work required to maintain the household.

Finally, societal expectations around motherhood and femininity have also played a role in increasing the burden on women. Women are often judged harshly if they do not prioritize their family over their career, leading to a sense of guilt and pressure to do more.

Overall, the burden on women has increased significantly in recent years, and it is important for society to recognize and address this issue. This can be done by promoting gender equality in the workplace and at home, offering support for working parents, and challenging societal expectations around gender roles and motherhood.
