On the eighth of March every year, the world awakens to International Women’s Day that guarantees a day praising womanhood. It denotes the day when online media is loaded up with women’s accounts of accomplishments, deals and offers. It is ‘the day’ that is intended to value the life, battles and accomplishment of women everywhere on the world. But why simply a day? Ought not women be regarded and appreciated each day? For what reason should women and their accomplishments be ‘pedestalled’ and commended once in a year? For what reason can’t each day be women’s day?
International Women’s Day is celebrated to perceive the battles and accomplishments of a woman. The facts demonstrate that women need to go through numerous battles and cultural factors prior to reaching at their objective. Valuing it is must, yet not once in a year or by squeezing them under a tremendous heap of endowments. International Women’s Day has its importance when it builds up gender equality and the privileges of women in each area. It loses its sense when it is utilized as an advertising technique, as a day of festivity or a day of fairness, opportunity and rights for women.
At the point when every day is a battle for women, regardless of whether it is shuffling among work and home, or haggling among marriage and profession or requesting for equal pay at firms, commending women’s day is only a demonstration of lip service. What is the importance of women’s day in India which has the most noticeably awful gender gap, is the second-lowest in enlisting women in the work force, where share is as yet a custom and where marriage and a decent spouse is the characteristic of a woman’s prosperity?
At the point when woman’s day awakens to a similar gender issues, various assaults done, documented and hushed women still hesitant to go out alone in the evening, it appears to be just simple posturing.
Patriarchy has consistently considered women to be somebody who can be taken over through material joy. Generalizing women as gold-diggers, is a typical thought that is passed unchallenged. Utilizing this generalization, patriarchy has oppressed women as agreeable and their issues as insignificant as a crying kid who will be content with a piece of cake. Womens’ day is additionally a piece of a similar circle. While every day women need to experience a large number of difficulties and limitations forced by society, on women’s day they can unwind and be valued for enduring the difficulties. What’s more, the appreciation isn’t tied in with giving her the opportunity or rights she merits.
Why cannot women’s day be tied in with breaking patriarchal society and its dividers perpetually that makes women’s lives testing? Thus, women’s day simply is by all accounts one more day of normalizing patriarchal thoughts of pedestalling women’s as extraordinary or goddess who endure the inescapable troubles in the existence of a woman. For what reason can’t women’s day be tied in with perceiving that women’s lives can be simple if society surrenders its stereotypic society and gets comprehensive for all characters?
Another significant motivation behind why women’s day is simple hypocrisy is the way that there is as yet an enormous group of women who are still avoided with regard to women empowerment. While numerous women today are engaged and have their very own voice, there are women who unconscious or unaffected by women’s day. They keep on working under low wages, bear savagery and abuses in life.
The principal reason for getting total gender equality for women on the planet has still not been cultivated. A gender pay gap perseveres across the globe. Women are as yet not present in equal numbers in business or governmental issues.
In addition, the stereotypic myths around menstruation actually directs the women as unclean. On the off chance that deep-rooted legends around periods are being continued in educational institutions, womens’ day and its enthusiasm for womanhood is a weak commotion that will disappear when the beginning of the following sunrises.
It is, notwithstanding, genuine that days, universities, conversations and firms that stage just women are a push to perceive women and their battles that have been curbed for quite a while. All things considered, we need beyond what one school where women can concentrate, more than one conversation where women’s issues and achievements are brought to the cutting edge and over one day when women’s lives ought to be esteemed and their reality ought to be regarded.
