Those days are gone when women had predefined gender roles and were made to stay within the four walls of the house, utilizing all of their abilities just to frame a perfectly round chappati. But all the webs of stereotypes surrounding women are eventually cutting lose and this has been possible with the tool of women empowerment and feminism. Times are changing and gender roles have been revised. Women have realized their potential and are breaking the shell that was thrusted upon them by the society. Everybody has a unique talent seeded in him that needs proper nurturing. But whenever we talk about passion, there’s always a question that pops out-
“Beta inn sabse Ghar nahi Chalta. Paise kaha se aayenge?”
This is just the argument of the people who have limited understanding of the world.
Can Internet Be the next step towards Women Empowerment ?
The advent of Internet has played a major role in giving a platform to the submissive voices of women and is actually strengthening them by getting them across a wide network of people. Our existence is no more local, we are now global- all thanks to the internet. Sitting at the comfort of our home, we can build awesome stuff and boost it simply by using internet. People are passionate about dancing, travelling, writing, photography, adventure sports, fashion, entertainment, shopping etc and some are passionate about food. Internet gives you a platform to channelize all your potential skills and helps turn your passion into your profession.
What do you have to do? Forget of what was, take a step ahead for yourself, channelize your talent and share your voice.
How do you have to do? All you have to do is start with a blog of your own, stand out to the people and grow personally, professionally, and financially from blogging.
