Do not be slaves to religion, to marriage, to children. Break these old ties, the state is your home, the world is your country”. • women those who extolls are the women of the factories and the fields; women who sweep the streets, who scrub, who carry heavy burdens, who plow and weave and drudge

  4. Conti… • We must build a new society in which women are not expected to drudge all day in kitchens. We must have, in Russia, community restaurants, central kitchens, central laundries — institutions which leave the working woman free to devote her evenings to instructive reading or recreation. … • Only by breaking the domestic yoke will we give women a chance to live a richer, happier and more complete life.” • Social suppression of women coincided with the creation of private property

Major Ideas New attitude to life and rules of living (morality) can be observed. • The arrangement of sexual relationship is one aspect of these rule of living • The question of relationship between the sexes is as old as the humanity society itself. • In Russia over the recent years of the civil war there has been little interest of working class towards love.
