This Women's Day let's leave behind the concept of being 'manly' if a woman equals a man, let's not be surprised when a woman surpasses a man with her abilities, let's stop portraying women as a damsel in distress who always needs rescuing. We women don't have to do things in a way a man does to prove our worth. We can do it in our own 'womanly' manner, and that's what makes us unique in our own way. Let's stop looking at ourselves in the mirror through a man's gaze and start looking at ourselves as an individual of our own rather than a possession. Raise your voice cause you know you deserve it. Don't let a man dictate your rights as a woman. Don't set the abilities achieved by a man as your scale of success. Don't let the essence of being a woman get lost in your quest of besting a man. Be a woman. Be you.
