The social status of Chinese women has been under tremendous development since the founding of the People’s Republic of China,compared to its veritable,miserable past during the thousands of years in feudal society.
Women were robbed of the right to receive an education as men did in the ancient time,simply because the doctrine said that “women without wisdom are people of virtue.”
Since the early 1910s,there has been a continuous women’s movement to change all of the above conditions.And nowadays China is a whole new world for women.
Especially in urban areas,women are now seen as no different than foreign women,many believe.
As stated in the Chinese constitution,women enjoy equal status in all aspects of their social lives.
