Las Tunas.- The
women's quality
of life around
world is really
alarming and
although the
female Cubans
have privileges
not everything
is solved yet
regarding their
emancipation.
I am not making
reference to
their physical
health, because
in this
Caribbean island
there is a
strong public
health that is
always
monitoring all
possible
diseases among
women.
I am making
reference to
dilemmas that
are not seen
easily, because
their
expressions are
not the result
of a severe pain
or a visible
injury, but
remain as
constant lack of
responsibilities
in the care of
each woman.
The female
Cubans,
especially when
they become
mothers, don’t
take care of
themselves and
don’t pay
attention to a
little pain that
might lead to an
incurable
disease.
|

In addition to
bearing
children, the
women of this
age need their
dreams come true
in their
families.

In spite of the
social efforts
some Cuban women
continue working
eight hours a
day and at their
kitchens too.
|
In words of
experts of Las
Tunas eastern
province, many
women often come
to consultations
with advanced
disease that
could have
another end if
they were
treated on time.
These things
seem to be from
other ages but
they are a real
fact as result
of the so-called
equality of
gender, because
this has became
a yoke that
binds them to
new
responsibilities.
The reality is
that a part from
working eight
hours a day,
they also have
to work at home.
So women don’t
take care of
themselves,
their
priorities,
their health,
because they are
always taking
care of the rest
of their
families.
Health is the
most valuable
for a human
being and to
preserve it a
free medical
care is not
enough, it is
necessary to pay
attention to the
signs of the
body and in case
of any problem
the physician
will always
tell. |
