thank you
I am just very curious 
how was females’ lives before 1960? do they like now able to vote? able to own properties? able to get an education? able to go to work and be senior management? able to go for facials, massage, manicure 
and pedicure and be daring challenge the authority and makes be the lady queen?
Maybe can refer to mediacorp drama like price of peace, little nyonya etc etc bah. If they weren't suppressed at that time, the women's charter would not be born bah.thank you
You were saying that in the past, there were very few women who went to university and worked as chief executive officer and managers. The reason is because there was a suppressed is the reason it’s not because of talent, capability and competency?
In those days, not many were educated to university level for males not to mention females. I still remember my parents telling me that in their time, secondary 4 was considered a major accomplishment.
bro people female girl also first class honours from universities and became a lawyer!
Yes. How many of such female were there then? Was university education for males common then not to mention females... Maybe can go and ask ur parents /grandparents.
That female I mentioned was the late wife of our late founding PM. The earliest known Singaporean to be educated at Cambridge University was Lee Kuan Yew, who matriculated at Fitzwilliam College in January 1947 to study law.
No excuses for our parents, not even for our grandparents you see Mr Lee Kuan Yew topped an island-wide exam at Telok Kurau English School. In 1940, when he was at Raffles Institution, he came in first in Singapore and Malaya.
Yes he was brilliant but u still have to admit that the university graduates of that time were few and far for males, not to mention females. That's the point I am trying to get through to u.
See my reply below. U do not use the achievements of 1 woman and said that the women of that time were given as much opportunities to excel then and now.
okay I understand but does Lee studies alone? His cohort surely have 20 to 30 other students that graduated with him?
okay please don’t be upset, I can’t sleep had to reply you short answers, initially I thought suppressed means no female can study into university back in those days
Again, we are talking about lky's cohort vs the whole population of Singapore then. Uni grads then were still uncommon....
okay, I think back then early 1950s Cambridge university graduate
has good excellent job offers even before they graduate 
and the pay is quite good $500 to $800 per month in 1951!
Yes. That is true but our agreement is on whether university graduates for women were common then as compared to now and that is still a no. University grads for males then were still rare as well.okay, I think back then early 1950s Cambridge university graduate
Okay I agree with you is rare but is not impossible to attain for Singapore Citizen
Bro, stop derailing the thread lah. We were talking about how the emancipation of women in sg lead to a fall in TFR. I have shown u proof that this is the case via the link and it have to do with the women's charter and the increased opportunities given to women in the workforce and increase in education of women. That's it. So pls kindly stop trying to derail the thread by talking about something else.
to improve our TFR, what measures will be effective? more support for families?
