Context: March 8th is international women’s day. I assume this must have been a special celebratory comic made to run on that day.

To this felt more cynical than celebratory. Switching roles for a day every year changes nothing.
By today’s standards, sure, but this comic is from half a century ago.
I think this is extremely progressive for its time. Not only does it suggest that they should be equal but also criticizes that womens day is a drop in a bucket compared to what we actually need to achieve equality. Tho this is only my reading.
Edit: oh also Pál is a male name in hungary which means the author isnt even a woman which makes it even more surprising.
