VII. READING. (Comprensión y análisis)

For many periods in history, men and women have not had the same chances in life, for
example, women have not always been able to vote in elections. In Spain, women could
any vote in 1931. In Switzerland, women could not vote in every election until 1991.
The USA is sometimes called the “Land of the free”, but if you had been a woman there in
the 1970s, you wouldn´t have been able to have your own credit card or get a bank loan.
Women were only owed to have one after 1974. This meant that most women couldn´t buy
expensive things, for example, a car, unless they had the help of a man.
Men and women are often separated in sport. But until 1972, women were not allowed to
take part in the Boston Marathon, also in the USA. That year, Nina Kuscik, an excellent
runner, decided to run in the Marathon under a fake name. The organisers didn´t know she
was a woman. On the day of the race, many people tried to stop her, but she became the
first woman to finish the marathon, in just over 4 hours.
If you had been a woman in Ancient Greece, you wouldn´t have been able to take part in
the Olympic Games. Only men could play. In fact, the rules were so strict, women were not
even allowed to watch the Olympics!
In Shakespeare´s England, in the 16th century, women could not act on stage. This meant
that all the female parts were played by men. Even in Shakespeare´s Romeo and Juliet,
the character of Juliet was played by a boy!
Another example is the invention of the train, in the 19th century. At the same time, trains
were thought to be extremely fast, and dangerous for women´s bodies. This might seem
funny, but it wasn´t until 1979 that NASA let women become astronauts on their space
program.
The fight for women´s rights continues even today, in many countries. But throughout
history, women have always demonstrated that they are just as good as men.
