“Did the washing machine change the world more than the internet?"

Every year brings technological change; products have evolved over decades to new styles, functions and designs. The washing machine has changed the way we was our clothes however, also changing society and the roles that gender play. On the other hand the internet has led our consumer lives bringing us what we need from entertainment to services to information all in one application.


The washing machine changed the way females were seen, it was as a starting point to the change of representations of women as females were seen to be the person who did the cleaning. But the washing machine meant that women had to spend less time cleaning clothes and gave way to extra time for them. This extra time meant they could go work or even go out to socialise.


On the other hand the Internet has become as a global community where views, values, traditions, goods and service can be exchanged, it has helped the economy boom and has given rise to a more technological advanced workforce with easy contact by the use of applications as skype and msn.


To concluded i believe that the Internet has changed the world the most as it has done more than empower females, it has empowered the globe.
