Hello Ladies! There are many things I could say about this subject, but I want to keep it simple. I think that the best way to describe how women are treated in society is by using the word "oppression." In order to understand oppression, you must first understand power.
Power is defined as the ability to influence or direct events. It comes in two forms: physical force and social force. Physical force is used to oppress someone by breaking bones, hurting them physically, or threatening to kill them. Social force is used to oppress someone by taking away their money, forcing them into sexual slavery, or making them do something that they don't want to do.
As you can see, both types of power are very different. Physical force makes a person feel helpless and afraid, while social force makes a person feel ashamed and guilty. The goal of any oppressor is to break down a person's spirit and make them feel worthless. To make them feel powerless.
In the past, women were oppressed because they didn't have the right to vote, own property, or own businesses. Women were also denied access to higher education, and forced to stay at home and raise children. Nowadays, these things have changed. Women have the right to vote, own property, and run their own businesses. But we still haven't achieved equality.
Women are still being abused by men, and we're still fighting for equal pay. We're still being sexually harassed at work, and we're still being told that we're not good enough. Even though we have more rights than ever before, we still have a long way to go.
I wanted to explore a few things about the way that we treat each other. I think it's really important that we all understand what the other side is going through so that we can try and find common ground. We're all human beings and we should be treated as such. No matter our race or gender.
So, let me start with a story from when I was younger. My family lived in an apartment complex, and there were some kids who would harass my little sister whenever she walked home from school. They'd yell at her to get out of their neighborhood, they'd call her names like "slut" and "whore," and even worse than that, one day they threw stones at her. She ran home crying and terrified, but no one came out to help her. So she went back outside and kept walking. It took her hours to walk home, and she was so exhausted by the time she got there that she just collapsed onto the ground. When she woke up, someone had brought her food. Someone else gave her a blanket. A third person cleaned off her face. And when she finally made it home, everyone hugged her and cried.
The thing is, they cared, my sister was able to survive. That's why I love stories like this. Stories where women aren't afraid to show kindness and compassion towards other women. Stories where women stand up for each other, and support each other. I think that's what we need more of in our world today. Women helping other women.
We don't always have to be the victim. There are times when we can take control of our own destiny, and if we do that, then we will change the world.
I'm not saying we should become warriors, or fight against men. The biggest lesson I've learned in my life is that strength isn't always physical. Sometimes you have to be strong inside, and that means being kind and compassionate to others. Being a woman doesn't mean that we're weak, it means that we have to work harder than most people to achieve the same things.
I'm proud to be a woman, and I hope that someday all women will feel the same way. I believe every woman has the right to live their life free of violence and abuse. No matter what anyone says, that's true. Every person deserves to be safe. We need to learn to trust ourselves and trust each other. We need to stop making excuses for the actions of those who hurt us. We need to remember that we are all worthy of respect. And we need to never give up.
It's easy to look at the world around us and see only darkness, but I choose to focus on the light. Because it's the little acts of kindness that make the world go round.
Thanks for reading!
I also wish that all women in the world are free from suffering violence or oppression abuse. thanks for sharing 😊
I very much agree with that, your sister's story is beautiful, I'm glad it has a happy ending, not all women can say that, but it's like you say we should try harder but the opportunities are there
