That is why I idolize those moms who are working at the same time they are taking care of their children, which is very difficult, but again, they make that sacrifice just to support their family. A lot of women are working from home right now because of the internet, which really starts when the pandemic hits. That is really the positive side of it, and right now you can work from other countries without really going to that country.

The Internet has done a great job in the lives of women today in the side of the country which I'm from, some men do expect their women to only a stay at home moms, and due to the availability of the Internet, some women have the opportunity to get jobs online and can work from home and as well take care of family responsibilities properly with the help of the Internet.

I cannot agree more. It is time for society to accept that locking women in the belief that they should on be the house doing household duties should be long gone. Women has proved time and time again that they are capable of handling heavy responsibilities the past few years. Gender should not be used as a basis of someone's capability.

This was a very big issue among the women especially in Africa but now, people have become wiser. Civilization has taken over. Every woman is now encouraged to learn entrepreneurial skills to help survive and compete favourably with other counterparts in the society. Today, a woman who is not into entrepreneurship and worst still not doing any other thing to earn money is tagged 'lazy'. Our society has changed greatly. The role of women does not end in house keeping and home management.

Starting a business/investment from the scratch is not easy but then, it is good to know that women who are actively involved in entrepreneurship are doing well because women tend to be good managers.

Although this is an old topic. But I'm glad I found this old topic because someone bumped into it and brought it back to the surface.
I've been thinking a lot about this lately too. That is currently career women increased rapidly than men. In fact, it is true that today many women are independent businesses and build their businesses very well. especially in the fashion and beauty sector. In fact, some of my friends have become successful people in just 2 years running a Muslim fashion business, which they opened through an online shop. He has a very large number of followers and he uses this to trade. And as a result he got a lot of customers and his business grew rapidly.

And he's not the only case I've found. because there are many more stories around me about women who are starting to populate the business industry today.

I was wondering if the same thing happened in your country?

In every country, the government of the country gives equal rights to men and women. In my country also the situation is equal for men and women but in the field of business there are many women who are working in different companies and earn their living. However, it can be seen that men contribute the most in terms of equal rights for women and men. In most cases, men are ahead in all businesses or in all aspects. If in a country 50% women are given equal rights to men then the percentage of men is highest there. As much as women and men have equal rights in the business sector or in various workplaces, women take up 30% of the entrepreneurs and the remaining 70% are men. So if women are more entrepreneurs then the percentage will increase and in that case men's entrepreneurs will also be equal.

Yes, there are still cultures and societies in their modern age that it is still backward, sorry to say that. Women is not treated equality and they are just being task to care of their children traditionally.

But in some Western countries, it's not the case, women have been for centuries, started to vote and they are fighting for equal rights. And that's why we have seen some CEO who are women, or at least started their own business and make it big and become the epitome of women empowerment and entrepreneurship.

Well, both men and women should never limit their knowledge and skills only in a single aspect but they should keep the balance as a whole. Either if they can be at home or in any entrepreneurship, at least they will be successful and profitable in the end. That way, there will be no comparison that will arise as it may somehow degrade an individual.

It’s real crazy that in this present day and age, the most important task of a woman in your country is to take care of the home and the children. It isn’t easy for anyone to successfully start and run a business and the presence of technology has made things easier for everyone.
I think your country should have a change of mind on what they classify as the most important task for a woman to do. It may surprise you that there are also men who are much better at taking care of the home and kids than their female counterparts.

Many factors influence that in your country there are still many women who choose to be housewives. perhaps one of the most influential factors is how each parent educates. And maybe most of them still have ingrained perceptions about the differences in the behavior of women and men in society. Differences in parenting styles from parents produce a gender that is in accordance with society's expectations, where men are taught to be more assertive and independent and have been instilled that one day "you will be the leader of your family" while women are usually taught to be gentle and then obey their husband's will. . If they do not meet society's gender standards, it is hoped that they will get used to being ridiculed and experience increased hardship.

And of course, as you said, each country has its own rules. However, in an increasingly developing era like today, there are many opportunities for women to be independent and have enormous opportunities to succeed in any field. Because women and men should have the same rights in a country to be successful in any field.

The presence of information technology makes many women who successfully become entrepreneurs, of course it is not an easy thing for women to be successful as an entrepreneur, especially in my country that the most important task of women is to take care of the house and children so that women are rarely found to be successful entrepreneurs.

Perhaps that is one area wherein women is the main attraction to attract customers. But I do says that there are areas as well the men are also good that women might not find that job easy.

But in any case, if we are talking about entrepreneurship, everything is equal. I mean my wife was able to go online selling during the pandemic and even up to now she is doing that kind of business. But for me, I don't like doing it for unknown reasons. Maybe as you have said, they have good language skills and knows how to promote their product nicely.

the role of women is indeed currently equal to that of men, the placement of women in certain business sectors can be said to be more effective than men, one example is in the world of marketing where there are many women with good language skills and attractive appearance seem to be the main attraction to be able to sell a product. in my country the minister of finance comes from among women, and is indeed smart in terms of managing finances, having previously served at the world bank

If we look at some of the successes in business, men are also more successful than women in certain businesses. But most women who are successful through certain businesses can also be seen in the character of the women themselves because there are also many women who are not successful in any business field. That was because the woman was ugly and also couldn't attract more customers, both female and male customers.

However, if you look at the women who have the charm of beauty on their faces, surely the business they run will be easier to sell and easier to attract customers of all genders. So women who are successful through any business also have their own category, because not just any woman can be successful through any business in this world, although you may see that there are many advertisements in this world that use women as the main actors.

Actually men can also focus more on their goals as long as the man is able to do it well, because for success it actually never looks at gender. But all of that success is based on someone's efforts in placing his focus where with a greater level of consistency on the mission he will achieve in business, whereas women are usually easier to use strategies to attract everyone.

In order to want to buy the products he markets so that he can sell more and that certainly makes a business grow fast, but this kind of thing doesn't mean that a handsome, dashing man can't do it. Because many women will also be more easily captivated by the charm of a man when there is a dashing and handsome young man who runs certain businesses in this world.

Women are also very detail oriented. They ensure that everything is planned and outline really well to ensure that everything is organized for their business. I think these characteristics of a businesswoman makes them successful in the field. They are also very easy to communicate with specially if it is with clients and customers.

When it comes to power and strength, mostly men will be dominant, but there are still women doing it, but only a few. But mostly, we noticed most of the business CEOs are women, meaning they are good at managing businesses and also small businesses in our local area, and I noticed most of them are women to help with family expenses. Roles are really important, like managing people, and you also need the right customer service as they are more persuasive and sweet at the same time.

Are you sure about this?
I don’t want to compare between them both or something but, arguably it could be said that some female millionaires found their way to making waves as millionaires through court and divorce papers.

Still, women are a great gender and I agree on the part where they’ve got the ability to be focused on a goal not until and over powering male figure diverts there attention but, there is so much a woman can archive in a focused start. They’ve got the brains and heart for it and when put into good use, a woman can equal a man.

Men just have a sense of devotion to everything that comes after them which makes failure not to be an option most times. It’s a DNA thing and it grows with you, the pressure you’ve got to manage, family, self and societal initiated. A lot to manage makes you precise in your steps and achievements.

Things are changing rapidly, this is what i have seen and that and also can say, like many users have said in their comment, the problem women face in our societies in terms of entrepreneurship is stemmed from way back, what they've been made to believe that a woman has nothing more to offer to the society aside getting married, bearing children, cooking, keep the home clean and ultimately being faithful and submissive to her husband, many women around the world grew up with this mentality and that caged them, caged their destinies and confined them to marriages and looking after the children, while the man even while running a family, still has the liberty to go out there, explore, try new ideas, achieve great things and be respected in the society

But today, the narrative is changing and its changing fast, women are beginning to wake up, they are beginning to explore, and they are beginning to show what great potentials can be inside of a women, we have many women around the world today who are doing really well, and better than most men in terms of building and running a business, company and so on, women are beginning to realize that they cant just be housewives, but that they too can explore, try new ideas, achieve great things like men do, and be respected in the society as well.

Women also have their role played in making business and they also contribute massively to enterprises, there's no complete business or enterprise without women directly or indirectly involved in it, they may not fit in many aspects but there are areas their role is needed to make a good impact for the experience needed, it is believed that there are particular areas in business where women's roles are particularly needed, such could be in advertisement, customer service or other businesses and enterprise where women are needed most, such could as well include a restaurant, fashion and other economical sectors their roles are very important.

Women are imbued with profound emotions, while men are driven by logic. Their approaches to decision-making are vastly distinct, and men may often display greater sagacity in making choices.

In the realm of entrepreneurship, women can indeed emerge victorious in the market battlefield due to several of their remarkable strengths, such as precision and attentiveness. Nevertheless, these are just a fraction of the full spectrum of their capabilities.

I do not prohibit women from becoming entrepreneurs; however, considering the circumstances and limitations they face in the world, women require extraordinary efforts to attain success in entrepreneurship.
