International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women

There comes a time in a woman’s life that she feels that she isn’t valuable to the world. When you think about it back in the day women were basically overlooked. Women were basically a yes man, or a yes woman and nobody really took them seriously. Even in 2017, many people still have that mindset about women. Things pretty much hasn’t really changed. Many people feel as though women can’t do the same things a man. Also, they should only do things that they were made to do. That is not the case, women are a lot more than what people have put out there for the world. Women are valuable and they do mean something in this world. Many women don’t realize that because it is put out there in the world from the past, she needs to know that it is not the case. You either have social media, or people talking about how women are only supposed to be in this bubble and nothing else. When it comes to women and the importance of their needs, some women think they sometimes invisible and have low self-esteem. She thinks she isn’t deserving of what is out there. Women are special, unique, gorgeous, one of a kind. Women can do anything if she puts her mind to it. When negative energy is out there and the woman will believe that and will think of how low she is. Women nowadays, like to attack one another instead of uplifting one another. Women should praise one another and build each other up when they are down. I am like that I feel that is the way to do it. Why be jealous of the next female when she is getting herself together. We all would side eye her for accomplishing her goals or dreams. We don’t know how she got there, or what steps she took to get there. All we see is she is higher than the next female, and she doesn’t like her because of it. Women, we need to get it together. We are caught up in not liking the next female when there is a bigger picture at hand.

Now you have read some important needs of women as individuals. Now you will read some important facts about the International Day of Elimination of Violence against Women. The International Day of Elimination of Violence against Women is held on November 25th. According to the aforementioned report, on the basis of data from 2005 to 2016 for 87 countries, 19 per cent of women between the ages of 15 and 49 years of age said they had experienced physical/and or sexual violence by an intimate partner in the 12 months within the relationship. In 2012, almost half of all women who were victims of international homicide worldwide were killed by an intimate partner or family member, compared to 6 per cent of male victims. Violence against women is out of this world. Some women will be abused, either physically or verbally. This must stop. When we will learn that this is not the answer. We are lacking in everything. We need to talk to someone so the violence will stop. What will that resolve? Nothing at all.
