I'm in tenth grade, this is for english class. I'm writing a speech which relates to a quote in the story 'Medea'. The quote is about how difficult it is to be a women and how they are treated. I need to write a speech about 120 words which relates to the difficulties to be a women in the twenty-first century.

There are some very good points made in some of your other answers, One that hasn't been touched on is when women burned their bras. You will have to look up ," The Burning of the Bra's- women". It should be easy to find when it happened. It was a protest by women. One of the consequence's is that women have lost the respect that men gave them. Like opening the car door or holding the door to an office building. Women have gone to far with being liberated. This is an area you can read about on the Internet and have a whole lot of info.

You need to give more info if anyone's going to help you. For instance, what's the assignment exactly? What class is this for? What grade level?
Anyway, I know a lot of women now work 9-to-5 in addition to filling traditional domestic roles. That seems like a good starting point. And you could talk about the glass ceiling.

I would say that being a modern woman is very tiring. You need to work, to earn enough money to financially support your family. If you have kids, you also need to be a mother AND a housewife. So, in addition to your work at the office, you have extra work at home as well. People expect you to be a modern woman, but they also expect you to play the role of a traditional housewife at the same time. That IS tough!!!

I don't find it difficult to be a woman, I love it. I am sure in the high powered city streets, the woman attorneys and wall street stock broker females find it more difficult than say, myself.

Lower salaries, not a lot of promotional opportunities, still stuck in the domestic stereotype
