focused and it's clear about what they wanted. by some of you. started when he was just 6 years old and because he enjoyed his 1st performance so much he never stopped. so let's do. this. let's. nicholas doesn't know yet if he will make his passion his profession but for the moment he should just. chose he's wrong. don't you wish you could move like that well march 8th is international women's day that's a day that as of just last year berlin actually recognizes as a public holiday unfortunately this year it does land on

a sunday so no extra day off for us but to mark the occasion my colleague rachel stewart has looked into the ups and the downs on the lives of women here in germany and whether or not we really have come a long way. hold on to your friends and save me the german film about with. 50 percent of the general population. some of the most popular names of girls over the past 15 years have been. the life expectancy of a girl boards of the day it's just over 83 years that's almost 5 more than the male kids will experience the quality of life. it's been an example of. and if have not yet along in this is for my thoughts and you still. want to print this much of this has at times previously by these you could not have to modify the far left side he's adamant about what's in my spine just just from this man's actions on the

and women shall have equal rights that became part of the german constitution in 1949 largely thanks to the complaining of politician elizabeth at. the end of the sixty's or civil unrest rippled across the. women in germany became fed up of being treated as assistants on the sidelines of a social movement remember that tomorrow from the beginning at a meeting of the socialist german student union you could have had enough she started launching tomatoes at the met on stage. this action ended up being a catalyst for the female students to get organized. in 1971 having an abortion could land the woman and her doctor in jail for up to 10 years that's why this magazine cover shook the country hundreds of german women including some household names declaring we've had an abortion the 2nd wave of feminism in germany went on to put all sorts of topics on the agenda such as wages for housework female

sexuality and discrimination against gay women. the reunification of germany showed just how different women situations have become in the west and in the east women in the east often went to work full time and there was a good childcare system in place whether or not you can call that a month the patient when it was more or less forced by the state is arguable and of course they were still expected to deal with the kids and the housework. are you ready for the f. word. and the america is one of the most influential women in the world she has said that gender equality is logical and yet she was never keen to label herself a feminist. hey cindy feministic night night. make me. going to die to deep insight into the. resort to extreme. through shit out of him in the small stuff on the.
