​

No one is born a woman. They are conditioned into becoming one, as each day of their lives pass by. In the process, her life, her experiences, her dreams and the shattering of her dreams make her into what she becomes.

​

An entity, very different from that of a man.  The society and patriarchy conditions them into their femalehood. She is taught that she can never lift her eyes, she is taught that she has to cover herself and save her dignity from the prying eyes of the men, she is taught that she has to become sufficient for a man she has never seen, a complete stranger.

 

The processes slowly weld her, melt her, and re-forge her into a meek, submissive and demure person with little individuality, because she has to pass the test of becoming the good girl.

​

And yet, despite all the odds of patriarchy and the red eyes of tradition, women are breaking the shackles.

Slowly but surely, they are stepping up in the roles of leaders, heads  of states, writers, researchers, doctors, pilots, scientists, players, civil servants, and even entrepreneurs.

Anything a man can be, and many more.

​

The time has come for her to know her rights and legal provisions for her safety, and use them as and when she needs to.

The time has come for her to stand up to all sorts of restrictions, and try to subjugate her.

But one can never fight a battle without weapons, weapons that will empower her, weapons that will help her resist, weapons that will assist her in standing up to each and every insult, injustice and indignity hurled at her.

The weapons? Education and Economic Independence.
