Abstract
This paper examines whether the Jamaican woman is still a symbol of "conspicuous consumption," restrained by Westernized sex-role stereotyping, which limits her to child-rearing and certain lower-order vocations. It questions whether she is assured of such things as adequate educational opportunities, accessibility to rewards for efforts, and an environment that provides incentives to even greater efforts
