Things have changed for women, Mr Maybury

Kevin Maybury's July 11 cartoon

Dear Sir,

Usually I read Kevin Maybury’s cartoons and smile in positive amusement, but his July 11 cartoon?

Now Mr Maybury: women have come a very long way from cooking in the kitchen while their men stretch out comfortably watching the World Cup uninterrupted.

That’s a joke — right? A parody of life in Bermuda?

Because across the pond British women dine on gastropub delicacies and watch the World Cup along with their men, and some have even picked up the tab demonstrating another notch of feminine pride.

Obviously gender roles in Bermuda need to be revaluated.
