Woman and her role in society


“A woman is like a tea bag - you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water ”
Eleanor Roosevelt
Women face many social challenges in the current day and age. Whether it be securing an income for her family or raising children amidst the harsh economic crisis, a woman plays many roles.. Women are often over-worked and women’s rights are still very much an issue in many parts of the world. In India, women are forced to use fields and open spaces for defecation and have had to withstand chronic health problems due to the lack of toilet facilities. 

In spite of the various problems faced by women they prefer to stay quiet, Why?

This is because they are not confident about themselves, and are not financially independent. The society looks down upon the women who try to live life their own way. Change is inevitable but it will take time. Men are always considered superior to women. Slowly these notions are breaking. Now women can also do things which men can. 

The main issue now for women is their safety. They feel that they are not safe. Its partly true. Examples are the rape cases. If the women were safe then these would never have occurred. Not only rapes there are various other problems which a woman has to face in her entire life.

If I could help out in any way I am ready to do my bit. The women should help each other in times of need. When the women stand united, no men would dare to mess with us. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. 

Audrey Hepburn

A woman has so many roles in a society like that of a Mother, Sister, Wife, Daughter and others. She fulfils each role to the fullest of her capabilities. Moreover the best part about being a women is that you take care of your parents in their old age. It is a woman who gives birth and starts a new life inside her and maintains it for 9 months before bringing it into the world. When a woman has such an important role in the society why is it that the women are treated unequal??  This is a very good question and I would want it to be answered. But due to the dominance of men these women are not able to voice out their opinion.
