"Женщина, в чем твоя ценность?"

the
Comment from the author: actually, I don't like to divide the world into men and women, because, first, I think it is unreasonable, and second, there are more identities than just “male” and “female”. But March 8 (feast of equality, not of spring and tenderness, for those who don't know) I still want to write about a woman.

throughout history, at least in our European civilizations, the woman - the man who has not received the value for. It was given to the male head of the family or community, and a woman had or to provide comfort in family, or become a nun, roughly speaking, to be valued and respected - and that this was not always the case.

of Course, time passed. Women went to work. Women received the right. Like the value of the society was higher. Yes, and the woman has some self-worth appeared confident that it is no worse than men, and in some ways even better.

However, I believe that not every woman, at least in our country (other countries simply do not dare to say) genuinely feel their value, estimates high.

And I relate it's not as General quality of life. Although, of course, insofar as it affects.

I think about misogyny(hatred, hostility, or ingrained prejudice against women) and related with her well-established stereotypes about what it meant to be a woman. Somehow, in our Russian society, the maintenance of such stereotypes is thriving rather than Vice versa.

All these “blonde behind the wheel”, “a wife must cook for her husband”, “she's a woman, how can her opinion be taken seriously” and “change times - it means whore, just sleeps with multiple guys is a whore too”. All these phrases they are absolutely not under an adequate logical justification, but uses the brains of society everywhere. Supporting overall stupid stereotypes and interfering with a woman feel your intrinsic value in full.

So, my dear girls, girls and women. I appeal to those who himself does not support it, because there are women who adjusted to the stereotypes and they sincerely believe is their right, it's easier to live.

In our hands and only our brains to decide who we are, how we live, whom to work and what a family to build. Neither the society nor the President, nor God himself (if he is) no power and no right to dictate our rules of life. Our self-worth, our self-respect we can provide for ourselves.

I Wonder how?)
