Doing sports is quite important, especially for younger people. If they start doing any type of sport when they are young, they will develop a habit to always be fit and physically prepared. This is where sports can help a lot, which is why every child should at least try to see if they like any before they say no - they might be surprised.
My favorite sport is volleyball. Ever since I was a little kid, I always enjoyed watching volleyball, and when I was a bit older, I actually got to play it myself. I wanted to officially start training volleyball because I wished to be a professional volleyball player, but unfortunately, that never happened. I always loved volleyball because to me it seemed like such an intricate sport - there are many people on the team, each of which have their specific tasks during the game. This sport isn't very dangerous, and it is a group sport, which means that you can find a lot of friends training. I've always found volleyball to be such a beautiful sport, and one of the reasons why I also love it is because of the way volleyball players look like - they look very fit, not overly muscular, tall, and overall handsome.
All in all, volleyball has been always will be my favorite sport because, first of all, it brings me back to my childhood days when I spent hours and hours playing with my friends, and then to my later years when I developed interest in it more professionally.
In "The Revolt of Mother" Freeman described women's role in the 19th century, when women were the only ones responsible for the household chores and for raising the children. In fact, these were the only things they were supposed to be occupied with as they wouldn't go to school like boys nor would they find a job. Freeman also describes the position of the mother in the family, where she couldn't participate in decision-making which concerned the house and the family including her. All important decisions were taken by the husband and even if the wife disagreed she couldn't do anything about it.
Today, in the Western world, women have gained the right to education and to equal opportunities in employment. Their role in the family has also changed as today the father participates in the household chores as well and he is also responsible for bringing up the children. Nowadays, the women can take important decisions concerning their lives and their families.
However, there some remnants from that era that are still with us today. For example, even if women have gained the right to vote there are still less women in the Parliaments than men. In addition to this, there are plenty of jobs in which they prefer to hire men or where women and men are not equally paid. Last but not least, many people still believe that women should have a different role in the family than men.
In conclusion, although the position of women has improved a lot since the era of Freeman, there are still many issues to be resolved.
