Women Run The World

Gender equality was not enforced long time ago because women were considered having a lower status than men. Women were often blamed, insulted and suppressed. It was such a pity to see women often got persecution in the past. Women sought for the gender quality because they were tired of being thought as a weak person. Fortunately, there were some women who were really meritorious in struggling for the gender equality.

We could see in the past that only men could get a good education because it was said that women would stay at home and be housewives. However, nowadays there are more business women than business men. Women can have a good education even until their Master Degree. Beside that, gender quality has not been really enforced because this year International Women's Day theme is "Planet 50-50 by 2030: Step It Up for Gender Equality".

As written above, gender equality has not been really succeeded although some women had struggled for it in the past. It is targeted to achieve the "real"gender quality by 2030 which means it is still 14 years from now on. So as the young generation, we need to succeed this year's theme to step up for gender equality. Women are not weak, women should have the same status as men.

As today is International Women's day, I would like to tell you that as a woman, we need to be proud of our selves and to be strong. Don't let anyone drag we down because we are beautiful and special in our ways. Don't compare each of us or compete with others because we need inspire one another.

Happy International Women's Day! ♥
