This day belongs to the Women of the world, women who have been called the “fairer sex”, “weaker sex”, “the better half”, etc etc. But what are women actually?
Are we the “fairer sex”? Not really… How can a person’s skin colour determine what sex they belong to? Or the sex determine what colour they should have? (ahem ahem…) So, calling us the “fairer sex” doesn’t make any sense, does it?
So, are we the weaker sex? Definitely not (guys can shake their heads negatively as much as they want to). Women may be physically weak (though not all) but their mental ability to withstand all problems has to be appreciated. And even in the area of physical strength, it’s only because not all of us have been trained to be physically strong (its feminine to be weak!!!). Now whose fault is that?
And how about being the “better half”? Well, I would agree to that only if it didn’t sound so sarcastic (it does sound sarcastic). It’s not that I am trying to look at the darker side of everything, but the “worse half” always love to indulge in sarcasm.
So, what are we actually? We are the ‘wo-men’ from where the ‘men’ come. So, why do we need all these adjectives? Let us be what we are – WOMEN!!!
