Line 6: − ==Choice as a Factor of Modern Gender Roles==+ − − This accommodates the view of some feminists, who view homemaking as a restrictive waste of time, and also upholds the beliefs of other women, who believe that homemaking is in [[truth]] one of the most challenging and rewarding pursuits, and many women are happier caring for their homes and children than pursuing a career, contrary to feminist positions. Thus, the major point of the modern feminist approach to gender roles is that the woman be able to choose her role with freedom, and without pressure from friend or institution.+ + +

Modern feminists sometimes say that they oppose the idea that traditional gender roles should be forced on women, at least in America. But they don't have much to say about the oppression of women in Islamic countries.
Modern feminists fight the idea that gender roles should be forced on women, either by those who seek to force women to be homemakers, or by those who seek to force women to choose careers. Therefore, modern feminists embrace the precept of choice, that women should be able to choose whether to be a homemaker, or a career professional.
Some feminists view homemaking as a restrictive waste of time, while other women believe that homemaking is in [[truth]] one of the most challenging and rewarding pursuits, and many women are happier caring for their homes and children than pursuing a career, contrary to feminist positions.
A major point of contention within the modern feminist movement is whether a woman ought to be able to choose her role with freedom, and without pressure from friend or institution.
