It’s a Woman's World

With the image of labor and the unappreciated nature of the society, men and women have been compared and contrasted through the course of time, causing an uphill battle for equality with the male-controlled societies. In most cases, our lives and that of men tend to be very much different but almost the same. Generally, women have been placed in less accurate positions than their male counterparts, who are by no means more important.

There’s this act of disappointment a woman feels when she is handicapped or compromises her family’s needs. That describes the saying that while the men are out hunting, women are slaving in the kitchen. History has formed a bigoted image of women in society today. The limitations of women in job choices despite the ability to perform well and become successful are prejudiced and are often overlooked. Notwithstanding the breakthroughs women have claimed in different fields, society still attempts to reduce women to certain roles instead of giving them the chance to be influential.

The Turning Point:

It is visible to the blind, and audible to the deaf that women of today are passionate when it comes to showing the society their ability to perform even better than men.

Conversely, In the nineteenth century, a lot of reforms occurred to change the hands of time and raise women to equality with men. Here comes more women in college than ever before, creating an avenue for female executives and a lot more. The “womanly” duties such as rearing children, cleaning, and cooking are now been taking up by most men.

We have risen to reach far beyond our impediments as women and trivial matters of household duties to the very core of humanity, having reputable goals, dreams, and the ability to expand each other’s minds.

It is highly condemnable to see some women who still allow oppression to occur to them or within their environment. Women should stand up and keep the red-hot burning plume alive and strive to achieve great success. We must also convey a conception of condemnation to societies that allow perpetrators of women oppressors, having the knowledge that strides are being made toward equality.

I urge all the women to look deeper into themselves and define what role we shall play to uphold the dignity of women.

This is a poem from Eavan Boland on women’s world

Our way of life
has hardly changed
since a wheel first
whetted a knife.

Maybe flame
burns more greedily
and wheels are steadier,
but we're the same:

we milestone
our lives
with oversights,
living by the lights
of the loaf left
by the cash register,
the washing powder
paid for and wrapped,
the wash left wet:

like most historic peoples
we are defined
by what we forget

and what we never will be:
star-gazers,
fire-eaters.
It's our alibi
for all time:

as far as history goes
we were never
on the scene of the crime.

When the king's head
gored its basket,
grim harvest,
we were gristing bread

or getting the recipe
for a good soup.
It's still the same:
our windows
moth our children
to the flame
of hearth not history.

And still no page
scores the low music
of our outrage.

Appearances rea**ure:
that woman there,
craned to
the starry mystery,

is merely getting a breath
of evening air.
While this one here,
her mouth a burning plume -

she's no fire-eater,
just my frosty neighbour
coming home.

I agree on this that there should be equality between men and women. Let the women have chance or opportunity to show their capability that men can do for they have also potentials to lead, guide and protect.
