I totally agree with you on this one. It is a trend all over the world to value women less than men. Shockingly to some of you and others, valuing women less happens in America as well. Who are the ones that usually stay at home with the kids, cleans the house, does the errands, does the laundry? Women are the ones that are in the majority when it comes to doing these things. Yes, it has to be done, but men are less likely and willing to do so. Women are still paid less than men and are expected to be the ones that stay at home and quit jobs or take time off when the kids are born. Men are still considered the breadwinners in America, and it doesn't matter the race. Housework and the sorts are considered work although it's not paid work and men tend to look down on the wives that stay home and tell their wives what to do if they're not working a paid job. Women are still, to an extent, expected to follow behind their husbands saying, "Yes, master. No, master. What is it you want or like?"

But at least in the west, we have a choice. I totally intend to give up my job when I have kids, and become a soccer mom. In fact, I might do it after I'm married.
