The evolution of womens roles is defined by duality: Gatherer and goddess, fragile and strong, easily tempted and temptress, second-class citizen and world leader. Women have come a long way since the first Womens Day in the United States in 1909, and as data collected by Queendom.com from their Gender Roles Test for Women reveals, even if some traditional gender role beliefs remain, modern women are no longer afraid to take a leading role at work, at home, and in the world.

Collecting data from 1,620 women of different ages, researchers asked thought-provoking and potentially controversial questions that their female sample boldly answered.

When asked whether women are equally suited for traditionally male jobs, most agreed - with a few exceptions:

When it comes to modern gender roles:

When it comes to old gender stereotypes:

In the last year, there has been a significant feminism backlash. An anti-feminist movement has taken hold of social media, with young women posting reasons why they do not believe in or need modern feminism, explains Dr. Jerabek, president of PsychTests, the company that runs Queendom.com. Understandably, the response from other women, and men, has been mixed.

I think what we can take away from this new movement and our study is that there are different degrees of feminism. Some women do not want marriage and children; some women like being swept off their feet and being taken care of by a man. There is nothing wrong with either of these scenarios. Feminism is not about hating men or feeling superior to them. For most women, it is about feeling comfortable in your own skin, whether you are the CEO of a major company or a happy stay-at-home mom. It is about treating women with respect and striving for equality and fairness, not pitting genders against each other. International Womens Day is about celebrating womens accomplishments and taking pride in who we are. We should not lose sight of the fact that we have come a very long way. Our suffragette ancestors would be proud.
