It’s been since time unknown, we are debating who is stronger, powerful, capable etc between men and women. This is a worthless cold war.
Reality is, it’s hard for some people to understand, BOTH ARE EQUAL.
Yet today women are under the domination of men. They are still unable to rise from the bog of male world where men are the rulers.
I read it somewhere, SHE has HE in it, hence women are incomplete without men but it can be other way round too, HE is taken from SHE, so men too are incomplete without women. So conclusion states, both are dependent on each other.Then why the male predominates? Why they get the privilege to decide what they want to do and women are questioned when they do the same?
Talking about the present scenario, women are equally fighting as front liners, be it in the hospitals to treat the needy, or going in to the hot spot areas to collect the samples, from maintaining the household in this difficult time to cleaning your city without a holiday. Yes, women are everywhere sometimes like a hidden angel guarding you or like a superwomen fighting for you.
80% of health care workers are women. (According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)
95% domestic cleaners and helpers are women.
93% child care workers and teachers are again women.
Minal Dakahve Bhonsle (a virologist) , who created the first corona virus testing kit is a woman.
The countries most affected by the pandemic are the one headed by men – USA, Brazil, Russia, Spain, the United Kingdom, Ital , France and India
The countries that are recognized as having managed the crisis best are the ones headed by women – Germany, Taiwan, New Zealand.
The list may go on and on, because the contribution of women to the society is no “LESS” than men still she suffers lower status , low pay, and often, unpaid roles, facing the harsh realities of gender bias and harassment.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
