Norwegian term or phrase: den likestilte familien
Occurs in the following heading:
"Sekulariseringen, den individuelle frihet og den likestilte familien."
I'm a little uncertain of how to interpret what is meant by "likestilt familie" here. Equal in relation to the other family members? Is it really just an indirect reference to equal rights between the sexes? I would be interested to hear how a Norwegian would interpret this.
