Women have made gradual progress towards equality over the past century. Historically, women lacked many legal rights and protections from abuse. Thanks to activists like Clara Campoamor, Spanish women gained the right to vote in 1931. While laws now establish equal rights for men and women, issues remain such as domestic violence, barriers to women's education, and discrimination against women in the workplace and immigrant women.

The document discusses the heavy burden that women carry through their daily contributions to social, cultural, and economic development, which often go unrecognized. The author inherited this "backpack" at birth and has carried it for 50 years, but now wants to take it off and inspire other women to do the same at an earlier age. She wants freedom from the stress of having to prove herself as a good worker and mother, and for her daughters not to have to shoulder this weight. The small, daily jobs done by women have propelled human progress, and the author wonders what would happen if women set down this burden and who would take it up instead.
