In the past, an absolute authority was held by the father and his decisions were imposed
and obeyed strictly without discussion. Later, many economical changes took place and
affected all of the family members dramatically creating a whole new concept of authority
in the family, a one that is based upon sound leadership, mutual understanding and
consultation among family members.
Women carried responsibility of doing all domestic jobs and served family members,
however, when she went to work outside her house, these loads began disturbing and
exhausting her. Therefore, man started to participate in assisting his wife. In addition,
industrial advances contributed in making these jobs easier than before.
This has led the researcher to ask if the Iraqi husband did participate in helping his wife
and to what extent women depend upon different household electric devices on a daily
basis.
The study sample was made of 150 ladies who were employees in different Iraqi
governmental facilities, high school teachers and faculty members. They were selected
only if they were married and have children of 12 years of age or younger.
The present study aims at identifying:
1. Extent to which Iraqi men assist their wives in household loads.
2. Extent to which Iraqi women benefit from domestic devices to minimize burdens of
doing household jobs manually.
3. Extent to which Iraqi women depend upon previously prepared foods purchased from
the market.
4. Extent to which Iraqi women admit being exhausted from domestic jobs.
The most important result of the study show:
1. About two thirds of study sample admit that their husbands help them in household
jobs. The majority of those husbands help their wives only occasionally and a small
percentage always assist their wives.
2. All the women in the present study bought previously prepared foods either on a daily
basis or only on occasions.
3. In the present study, all the participants depended upon different household electrics to
lower domestic loads.
4. The majority of the study group feel exhausted from household jobs, however, only
occasionally. Only a small percentage doesn't feel consumed especially when their
husbands share their loads.
The researcher had made a number of recommendations including:
Educational programs should include the subject of family support between a man and
his wife in household jobs (especially in boys' schools).
Further studies could be conducted to know women's suggestions in minimizing household
burdens.
Nineteenth century Gothic literature was deeply concerned with the threats against masculinity. Perhaps one of the most important changes that happened at that time was the emergence of the New Woman model which posed a great threat against masculinity and the male role in the Victorian society. Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897) portrays female characters who embody this transition in female roles from the domestic wife to the New Woman. This paper focuses on the female characters Mina Murray and Lucy Westenra, their roles in their society, and the different fates they face at the end of the novel, with special focus on Mina’s transformation to the model of the New Woman.
The present paper is a qualitative descriptive study. It aims to examine the macro-cultural schemata addressing the concept of violence against women in Iraq from a cognitive linguistic point of view. To meet this objective, a number of Iraqi social caricatures have been selected from two popular and active Iraqi caricaturists, Odeh Al-Fahdawi and Nasser Ibrahim. The selection and the analysis of data have been achieved following the validity and reliability procedures and the ethical considerations. To meet this objective, Sharifian’s Model (2011) of Cultural Schemata has been adopted in data analysis.

Due to the continuing demand for larger bandwidth, the optical transport becoming general in the access network. Using optical fiber technologies, the communications infrastructure becomes powerful, providing very high speeds to transfer a high capacity of data. Existing telecommunications infrastructures is currently widely used Passive Optical Network that apply Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) and is awaited to play an important role in the future Internet supporting a large diversity of services and next generation networks. This paper presents a design of WDM-PON network, the simulation and analysis of transmission parameters in the Optisystem 7.0 environment for bidirectional traffic. The sim
