-Twenty years ago, most women stayed home and spent their lives caring for children and running a household. Daily chores like cleaning, washing, and cooking, took the best part of their lives. Today, most of the women work either full or part-time outside their homes.  Families are smaller and there are more labor-saving appliances.
According to a poll conducted by the Gallup Organization, washing dishes is the most disliked task for all women. The second most disliked task is cleaning the bathrooms.
 
-Hi Lisa, yesterday I went to the cinema with Lucy and Camila. They bought popcorn and coke. I preferred drink water you know I haven´t broken my diet in three weeks so I wasn´t going to do it yesterday. We saw Fast and Furious, Camila and I cried so hard at the end. When it ended we took a taxi to the plaza and we ate hot dogs. I paid because they didn´t have more money. Their parents only gave them 15 dollars, it was already late and I knew I should not be late but I saw a girl painting the landsape and it was beautiful.
