Women Are a Force to Be reckoned With
Women are a powerful and influential force in the world. They have long been a catalyst for change in society, politics, and the workplace. They have fought for equal pay, affordable child care, the fight against domestic violence and sexual assault, and are on the front lines of the global fight against climate change.
Women tend to work better as part of a team than men, which makes them excellent leaders. They are also better at building a sense of community among employees. Companies that focus on empowering their female workforce and promoting their unique talents have found that employees are happier, more productive, and more committed to the company than those that do not.
As the most diverse group of human beings on the planet, women are a rich source of inspiration and innovation. They have been a force to be reckoned with throughout history, and will continue to make the world a better place.
There are many ways to define woman, but for most of humanity’s existence, the term was simple: an adult human who has XX chromosomes, making her fertile. The word also refers to a person’s female anatomy, including the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, and vagina. Women typically have a larger pelvis, wider hips, and thicker breasts than men, which facilitate pregnancy, labor, and breastfeeding.
The Bible tells us that “Woman was taken out of man and made for him, to be his glory” (Genesis 2:18 NIV). For most of the world’s history, however, women have been subjugated, abused, mistreated, and ignored, which is why so much progress still needs to be made.
It’s vital that we as humans recognize and celebrate the diverse experiences of all women around the world, no matter what their circumstances. It’s equally important to support women as they strive to live up to their full potential, whether that means becoming a world-class politician or simply making sure their family can afford to buy a loaf of bread.
As a gender, women are powerful. They have a deep capacity to serve others, and they do so without ego or pride. This is what makes them wonderful teachers, doctors, storytellers, and mothers. It’s why they often find the work they do so fulfilling.
As the world’s most powerful and resilient force, women should have a voice in decision-making at all levels of government and business. They should be empowered to participate fully in public policy-making, which will have a positive impact on the lives of people everywhere. That was one of the conclusions reached by women leaders and experts from more than 60 countries at a high-level meeting held this week in Santiago, Chile, with UN Women and Oxfam International. It was hosted by the President of Chile, Michelle Bachelet. The meeting was held to promote a new agenda for gender equality in the 21st century. The world is at a critical moment, and the time to act is now. If we don’t, it’s likely that the global goals for sustainable development will be missed.
