The Former Woman And The New Woman

Can the new woman go wrong in this new age? seems everything is a man’s fault and the women have not acknowledged any fault or downside since the era of the ‘Me Too’ movement and I ask, can a gender be so blameless?


Now, how healthy is the view of a victim all based on emotions, and how important is a voice with no backup action to defend the voices? Where then is the balance?


The former woman was a lot of lesser value, barely had a say in her life and sacrificed for her children, found a way to pay the price and convince men to send her female children to school for education where she found exposure and began to break the barriers with her voice.


But the new woman makes it all about herself now. If a man approaches a woman sexually, he is harassing the female, but she sees her sexual approach as hot and sexy because a man will not turn down a sexy woman. But does that make it lesser than harassment?


To make a change, sacrifices are required. But as for voices, anyone can feel something and have opinions and opinions are simply not enough.
For instance, if female children are fewer in schools, go about connecting with the appropriate sources to change the situation, but do not stop at airing your opinion in the media space. Simply do more for what you believe.


And this ‘Self-Love’ of a thing is somewhat ironic to me. How does self-love equate to plastic surgery for things about your body you desperately want to change? shouldn’t it be about loving your body as it is?


Manipulating a narrative is not enough. If you are being harassed by your boss, put your feet down, knowing you might lose your job. Why will you like to continue working for a man like that when you will never be treated the same anyway?


The new woman must learn to fight before crying not just cry. A battle-ready and strategic mindset has opened the door to respect for us, going timid and appealing to reasoning is not the only tool needed for progress.
But also, every narrative still requires balance. For the world to be a better place, it cannot be about a certain gender’s happiness and convenience alone, it has to be everybody’s.


Helping the male child to grow right towards having compassion for the female folks and acknowledging the strength and weaknesses of a woman is the responsibility of the mother as well as every woman. These means don’t just attack the fathers and forget to correct it in your sons and that requires attention, spending time with your family to inculcate the right attitude, but how does that work if you are in business meetings from 7 am to 8 pm every day or on business trips for more than half of the year?


The place of sacrificing cannot be over-emphasized. The balance is important at this point of the new age before the men begin to scream their martrichial injustice and rule. It means we have lost the balance when the necessary thing to do is to create synarchy, the rule of both gender.
