| Summary: | Over the past few decades, life for many women across the globe has changed beyond all recognition. This fascinating series explores how, from the highest echelons of society, to the lowest rungs of the global ladder, a quiet revolution has been taking place. Women today have the power of self-determination; the autonomy to choose their own life paths and identities, rather than those enforced on them. And while there is still oppression and repression from West to East, females the world over are grasping opportunities denied to those who went before them. There has never been a better time to be born a woman thanks to recent progress on equal rights. From the deserts of West Africa to the cities of China, we meet the women redefining the place of marriage, child birth and sex in their lives. In the second part of Her Story: The Female Revolution - we examine how the personal lives of women are changing. |
