Solution

As humans have evolved over the years, so has mankind processed. Women in the olden days, like the Neolithic age, only did the household work of gathering food, cooking, taking care of the children, and cleaning work. In medieval times, women got a little more important and hence, were allowed to educate themselves, but nevertheless were not allowed to work and earn a penny for the house.

In present times, women are empowered and educated. They can work at home and also work outside to earn money for the house. They are allowed to go out with their friends. They educate themselves and acquire the highest degrees. Today, women can be entrepreneurs, doctors, engineers, CAs and many more opportunities are open for them.
