How Does Confucianism Demonstrate Changes In The Position Of Women

We live in a world full of changes. As you see in the past of China, women are totally invaluable in that century. The position of women are lower than men because of some old fashioned mind. To illustrate, Confucianism placed conservative rules on women with “Three Obedience”and “Four Virtues” (the so-called “San Cong Shi De”). Three Obedience are three following precepts, which are women should be obedient to father before marriage,husband after marriage and to son after the death of husband. At that time the criterionwhether a woman is good or not is obedience. Four Virtues are morality, properspeech, modest manner and diligent needlework. Besides that, Chinese women have no choice and freedom to choose their bridegroom, they need to

Same with the country of China, only men could obtain a divorce. Men had the right to take a second wife even he has not divorce with his real wife. Besides, England has a bit different with the two country above, because this is a country that woman in charge which is Queen Elizabeth II.

Besides that, women gained the rights they deserved in both family and business space, so now women are dominant as much as men, they become equal to men in every area, for example, they began to have rights to receive inheritance and divorce. Moreover, when we look at business life, we see profile of working, producing woman today. They also gained dignity in business area because the showed that they could do it like men. Today it is possible to see women in every field, they always prove to everyone who look down on them, so that they pursued a high education to upgrade themselves. Although today school has the same number of girls and boys, the higher education rates are greater for women.
