Oh Woman !!!

Simplyalice

She: Oh Man! That time of the year is nearing 

He: What, performance appraisal?

She: no…

He: financial year ending?

She: nah…

He: confused and brooding?

She: International Women’s Day 8th March...

He: Oh Woman! Let's celebrate😊 

 

She Feels:

 

I don’t need any quota on governing bodies to prove I can govern!

I don’t need reservation in legislation to lead my region, state and nation!

I don’t need any quota in education to prove my intelligence!

I don’t need reserved zones in public transports to feel protected!

I don’t need quota in jobs to work and feed my family!

I don’t need a day to celebrate my existence and achievements!

I don’t need any period leave …period!

I AM HUMAN.

What I need is Equal opportunity and Respect. That’s all it takes!

    Shouldn’t have to be said but there is still a long way to go……

    Well said maybe a new internet trend might develop of “Alice simply says….”
