Ua haʻalele nā wāhine ma Switzerland i ka hana ma ka Pōʻalima, e hana ana i nā hōʻikeʻike e koi i ka uku kūpono, ʻoi aku ka like, a me ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka hoʻomāinoino a me ka hana ʻino.
ʻO ka hōʻoluʻolu ʻole ma luna o ka moekolohe a me ka like ʻole o ka wahi hana ke kumu i ka "paʻi wahine," ʻoiai he nui ka poʻe e koi nei i ka uku kiʻekiʻe no nā limahana home, kumu a me nā kahu mālama.
Aia ʻo Switzerland ma hope o ka nui o kona mau hoalauna ʻEulopa i ke kaulike kāne. Ua loaʻa wale i nā wāhine Swiss ke koho balota i ka makahiki 1971, he mau makahiki ma hope o ka hapa nui o ka honua komohana, a hiki i ka makahiki 1985 pono ka ʻae ʻana o kā lākou kāne e hana a wehe i kahi waihona waihona.
I ka makahiki 2005 wale nō i hoʻokomo ʻia ai ka haʻalele hānau hānau, ʻoiai ʻo ka wahine ʻoihana e loaʻa ana ma ka awelika he 19% ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o nā kāne - a he 8% ka liʻiliʻi me nā ʻano like. Wahi a kahi noiʻi hou ʻo Amnesty International, 59% o nā wahine Swiss e ʻōlelo nei ua loaʻa iā lākou ka hana hoʻomāinoino.
ʻO nā hanana o ka Pōʻalima e pili ana i nā kū'ē i ka lā 14 o Iune, 1991, i ka manawa i haʻalele ai nā haneli haneli o nā wāhine Swiss i kā lākou mau hana no ka hoʻohewaʻana i ka hoʻokae, 20 mau makahiki ma hope o ka lanakilaʻana o nā wāhine Swiss i ke kuleana koho a heʻumi makahiki ma hope o ka liloʻana i kānāwai kaulike.
Manaʻo nā wahine he liʻiliʻi ka holomua maoli mai ia manawa. "Manaʻo wau he nui ka poʻe o mākou i manaʻo e hoʻololi wale ʻia ma hope o 1991," wahi a Marie-Laure Fabre, kahi luna hoʻomalu ʻoihana. "Akā ʻaʻole i loaʻa a ʻaʻole e hana. Hohonu loa keia; ʻo ia ke kumu. Pono mākou e hakakā no ka mea e pono ai mākou.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- Friday's events allude to protests on June 14, 1991, when hundreds of thousands of Swiss women left their jobs to condemn discrimination, 20 years after Swiss women won the right to vote and a decade after sexual equality became law.
- Swiss women only got the vote in federal elections in 1971, decades after most of the western world, and until 1985 needed their husbands' approval to work or open a bank account.
- Ua haʻalele nā wāhine ma Switzerland i ka hana ma ka Pōʻalima, e hana ana i nā hōʻikeʻike e koi i ka uku kūpono, ʻoi aku ka like, a me ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka hoʻomāinoino a me ka hana ʻino.
