Women Empowerment- A Retrospect & Prospect Study

Abstract “Women Empowerment”, as a movement has been in existence since the dawn of history. Half of the population of the world has been discriminated and ill treated as the “Second sex”. The pioneers of the Feminist Movement, Mary Wollstone Craft, Charles Fourier, Simon de Beauvoir and their followers Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Mahatma Gandhi, Sarojini Naidu, Savithri Bai Pule and many other kind hearted persons have kept the torch of the woman empowerment burning.
But women have to go many miles to reach their destination of gender equality. Starting with man, the hunter, the lives of men have been taken to represent those of humans overall. There is only silence about the data of women’s achievements who comprise the other half of humanity. There is little about the achievements about the women as the data available is mostly about men, by men, and for men and the world has been designed for the advantage of men. If we look at the data available about this, the data bias is evident in every sphere of human activity.
As it is difficult to eradicate the evils perpetrated by men against the women, women should learn to wait and strive hard to fight for equality with men. The Government has come forward to help women in a number of ways, but even that Government which is dominated by men has been not entirely successful in putting an end to gender inequality. A bewildered and horrified humanity looks on helplessly at the male sponsored State enforced slavery of women in Afghanistan. Meanwhile women should start learning new techniques, to rise in this male dominated would by conquering their shyness and softness. They should learn to postpone the display of their goodness and selflessness and start working for their promotion by mastering the skills needed to outshine men. Men also should sincerely work against the discrimination of women instead of mutely glorifying them.
