The Women's Power

Every 8th day of March, we celebrate International women's day. It's a global celebration for the social, cultural, economic, and political achievements of women but it doesn't necessarily mean that only those with public achievements are allowed to celebrate. All women can celebrate this special day, that's why it is called "International women's day". This article will tackle the sacrifice, love, and success of women, this will also discuss the gradual acceptance of women's power and capabilities in the community.

Stereotypes

Before, women are not allowed to lead as our ancestors believe that females are only intended to serve men. This stereotyping is called gender stereotype wherein as a mother, the ladies should stay at home take care of the children, and do other household chores while men provide financial support for the family. Although stereotyping is still present in today's generation, the fact that it has been lessening for the past years is a good sign of development. From time to time, women prove their capabilities and their claim that a man can do can also be done by them. In another sense, the aforementioned cliche is true.

ever since our community accepted the skills and capabilities of women, they showed us great power and a bright future for the next generation. Some can raise their child without the help of men or what we called single parenting. Others are working so that they can provide for the needs of their family and take note, women can now access the privilege of doing jobs that were only intended for men before such as engineering, automotive, there are even women welders now. Additionally, upon the world's gradual acceptance and acknowledgment for women, the path and privilege for them to lead not only in a simple organization but also in a single country have been achieved.

women's sacrifices

It's already innate to women to endure sufferings, well at least that's what the bible says in the beginning but please let us set aside our religious beliefs just for the sake of the topic.

Their sacrifices are great most especially if they become a mother. They will carry their child for 9 whole months and soon will raise their children until they are ready to live their own life. Sometimes if a family's life status is poor and they can only eat one or two times a day if they got lucky but if they got little to eat, the mother will choose to give her food and starve just so she can satisfy her children's empty stomach. She can give her life just so she can assure her children's bright future. Some will choose to work abroad and endure the pain and agony of leaving their Child and family just for the sake of their future, sadly, there are instances of children's rebellious acts against their mother because they don't understand why she needs to leave and work far away from them. The circumstances of aloofness of a child towards s/he mother are great if s/he grows without the physical presence of his/her mother. In rare cases, a mother can endure the pain of putting up her children for adoption so that she can secure her child's future.

However, there are cases of women aborting their children not just because they can't provide a brighter future for their children but because they remind them of horrible experiences they had in the past. Typically, women who were raped and conceived after the crime have a high probability of aborting their children but we cannot blame them for such action because they are abused not only physically but rather emotionally, and mentally as well.

Although on the brighter side, victims of maltreatment or crimes like rape or other criminal offenses made their way back and sometimes become even more successful in life- of course, you don't need to experience such horrible things just to become successful in life. Nobody deserves bad treatment and no one shall be treated inferior to the other one. Remember, we are all human, either a man or a woman, what can be done by you can also be achieved by me. If a man can be a leader then a woman can do the same. The only thing that distinguishes a man from a woman is their sex organs but with regards to talents, skills, and knowledge gender is not a requirement just so to achieve these traits.
