The India Movies | Adult Movies OnlineRepublic of Ireland will hold a referendum on an article in its Constitution which states a woman's place in "in the home."

The constitution also discourages mothers from gaining employment lest it affect their domestic obligations at home.
"The State shall, therefore, endeavour to ensure that mothers shall not be obliged by economic necessity to engage in labour to the neglect of their duties in the home," the article continues.
On Thursday the Irish government passed a motion to remove the "outdated" article from the constitution. A referendum on the article will occur on the same day as Ireland's presidential election in November.

Orla O'Connor, director of the National Women's Council of Ireland, said the article is "symbolic of an Ireland that kept women at home and kept women at a particular place which really took away women's rights."
"It's so important that we recognise that, of course, a woman's place is everywhere, it's in the home, it's in paid work, it's in many different places," says O'Connor. "And to have a provision in the Constitution that says a woman's place is in the home really speaks to a very unequal Ireland."
Charlie Flanagan, Ireland's justice minister, said the article is reflective of the "prevailing social ethos of the 1930s," but some have argued that it represents a "narrow, discriminatory view that sought to confine women to one part of society only."
