At an international woman's conference the topic for discussion was how to empower women in the home.
The first speaker was the British representative.

She stood up and said;"I decided to make a stand against my husband's oppression and so I told him that I would no longer be doing the washing.
After the first day I saw no result ; after the second day I still saw nothing
but after the third day he did his own washing!"

The delegates applauded this brave stand for women's rights.
The second speaker was from America.

She stood up and said; " I told my husband that I was no longer prepared to cook for him as it was a form of enslavement.
After the first day I saw no result
after the second day I still saw no result
but after the third day he cooked a meal for the both of us!"

Again the conference applauded.
Next came the Australian delegate.

She said; "I told my husband that I would no longer be doing the shopping.
After the first day I saw nothing,after the second day I still saw nothing
but after the third day I could see a little bit out of my left eye!!"
