To all women living on this planet:

Are you aware of the Convention on the Political Rights of Women, which came into force on July 7, 1954? Or the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women signed during the Second World Conference on Women in Copenhagen in 1980? How are women faring worldwide today? And how is your life?

Let us reflect on some remarks made by United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. On International Women’s Day, March 8, 2007, he said:

"However, turning consensus into universal practice remains a long way off. In almost all countries, women remain underrepresented in decision-making positions. Women's labor continues to be undervalued, underpaid, or entirely unpaid. Among the more than 100 million children out of school worldwide, the majority are girls. Among the 800 million illiterate adults, most are women. Worst of all, violence against women and girls persists on every continent, in every country, and in every culture. Such violence has devastating effects on the lives of women, their families, and society as a whole. While most societies prohibit such violence, in practice it is often covered up or condoned."

In his Call to End Violence Against Women on November 23, 2012, Ban Ki-moon stated:

"Millions of women and girls worldwide are assaulted, beaten, raped, mutilated, or even murdered—acts that flagrantly violate their human rights. It is all too common for perpetrators to go unpunished. A culture of impunity silences women and girls, leaving them too afraid to speak out."

How does this make you feel? How are you living right now? If you find yourself living without dignity, still suffering oppression and abuse physically, emotionally, and spiritually, wouldn’t you want to change that? Can you simply wait for the United Nations to create a better life for you, or must you take action yourself?

You must make an effort! How? By supporting the Second Home lifestyle of Lifechanyuan.

In the Second Home:

“Heaven and Earth are reversed, and female celestials are honored.” The dignity, basic rights, and personal safety of women are fully respected and protected.

There is no discrimination, oppression, or exploitation of women. The "three mountains" that have traditionally weighed on women—religious authority, patriarchal authority, and spousal authority—have been removed.

No one will bully, insult, or abuse you. The burdens of tedious, endless housework disappear. You can fully express yourself and freely sing and dance to your heart's content. Every woman has her own sacred, private space where no one can disturb her without permission. Day or night, you can leave your doors and windows unlocked without fear. No man will dare enter your room without consent or harass you in any way.

You are free to communicate with anyone outside the community via phone, mobile, or the internet.

There are no "leaders" imposing their will on you. All activities are voluntary and self-driven. You don't need to worry about caring for the elderly or raising and educating children—Second Home takes care of these responsibilities.

There is no interference from mothers-in-law, and no competition or conflict with sisters-in-law. Instead, you will have many close sisters to chat, play, learn, work, and enjoy life with. This is no longer a fantasy or a castle in the air—it is a living reality.

What do you think? Support the Second Home lifestyle! Even saying a kind word about it can make a difference.
