" அவரின் மகள்
இவரின் மனைவி
உங்களின் தாய் என்பதை விட
நான் என்பதாக
விட்டுச் செல்ல விரும்புகிறேன்
எனக்கான என் சுவடுகளை "
The above beautiful lines that I read in a Tamil magazine literally means " More than just a daughter, a wife and a mother, I would also like to leave traces of "ME" . The poem reflects millions of women's inexpressible feelings in just 4 lines. "Self Identity" is what every human being craves for and of course women are humans!
As per human psychology, a person's overall needs could be classified into 5. They are Survival, love, freedom, fun and power of achievement. SURVIVAL is a problem generic for both men and women. But recently, many incidents of sexual harassment against women have resulted in women's mere survival a big question. Protests and Arrests cannot protect them. Basic morals in our education system and a change in our social setup could only solve these issues in the long run.
LOVE - Women are loved by men and that is the sole reason you are celebrating 'WOMEN"S DAY". I can hear your crib that there is no 'MEN's DAY". Don't worry! it is your day as well, "MEN" is part of "WOMEN" anyway :-)
FREEDOM and FUN - I agree all of us lose our freedom after marriage. After all, life is all about compromises. If it is in the right ratio, we can have fun.
POWER OF ACHIEVEMENT - This is where most of women are impacted compared to men. Women are forced to believe that they are born as good home makers. May be true, but they are also born multi taskers. So, they could be both good home makers as well as good teachers, writers, doctors, scientists, engineers, artists, entrepreneurs, social workers etc.
I bet any of this generation women would be completely happy with just home management and parenting. This gap could be filled only by this "Power of achievement". So men, give them a chance to fly out of this "home making cocoon" and explore their skills, be it any field of interest and let them contribute to this society as well. All is required from you is little support and small adjustments here and there.
Together we can make this world a wonderful place to live !
"Happy Women's Day " !
