I am also for empowering women. My mom is a doctor, my wife is a dean at a local college, my syster is a physical chemist in one of the best universities in the world. Yet i hear the backward whispers of some of my friends all the time. They say if a woman can take care of herself then she will leave you so you always gota keep them dumb and dependent. They dont let their wives do anything of value because they are too insecure about their own abilities to allow their wives to live. What is perhaps even more disturbing is that these women are perfectly content being sheep in the pen.
Nah, I think it's more because when the wife brings home the paycheck, she starts demanding even more things like a bigger house, fancier car, etc. and it ends up doubling the debt. Look honey, with both incomes we can afford a quarter million dollar mortgage Happiness in slavery

I agree with you Tigranakert, mainly because with only 3 million people in the homeland, we could use every available body. Lets not forget that women also served a role in the Artsakh liberation war, and Monte treated the women as equals to the regular soldiers, and it worked for us.
I'm not saying our women should be like the women in the west, hell no. But Armenian women should be given a chance to contribute as much as they can towards our statehood, whether its economically or militarily.
No, I don't think that role of women should change towards that kind of directions. Women have their place in society they should stay there. Women going to military would be joke and embarrassment for us. In terms of government, I wouldn't like to see woman being president just because the whole image of it doesn't look right. You see what has also happened as consequence of giving women to much freedom. They start running off with Arabs and Blacks and spit on their Armenian culture, there always has to be a careful eye on them.
Women should not be placed in the frontline, but more as medics and especially in the logistical field. As we have shortages, this would be highly beneficial. I think by involving women into our economy, politics and military they will become more aware of their Armenian heritage and start thinking about why it is important to keep our Armenian values. Women have always played an important role in our history.
As for Armenian girls marrying non-Armenians, there are things I think we must change a bit. Being part of the islamic world for a long time, some of their tradition has infected us. In my opinion we are too strict against girls or women, in the sense that we do not give them enough room to develop to become active in our economy, politics and military. I would love to see this change and would not mind having a woman as President in the future (as in our history women have always played an important role).
This is the way it should be in the future!
