Women Roles
Until the reforms made possible by the Revolution of 1974, Portuguese women had notably fewer political, economic, or personal rights than the women of other European countries. In family matters, they were subordinate to their husbands, having to defer to male decisions about how the children should be reared and educated. Women couldn't be educators, attorneys, or any important profession. In1969, that all married women obtained the right to obtain a passport or leave Portugal without their husbands' consent. It wasn't until, the constitution of 1976 brought Portuguese women full legal equality.
Education
The education is regulated by the State through the Ministry of
Education, Higher Education and Science. However the average Portuguese teenage student has profound handicaps in terms of expression, communication and logic, as well as a low performance when
asked to solve problems. The Educational system consists of the Primary education, secondary education and Ternary vocational education.

Government
The Portuguese legal system is a civil law or continental legal system, based on
Roman law. Portugal has increasingly become one of the most LGBT-friendly countries in the
world and has many pro-LGBT legislation and bans on LGBT discrimination, including one of the few Constitutions in the world that protects on grounds of sexual orientation.

So for the most part, the Portuguese government has had a strong liberal concept.
