Steem Cameroon Contest - International Women's Day (Nigeria)

Edited with Inshot

International Women Day is culled from the maltreatment that was given to women of the olden days. Before civilization came into existence, women were considered as the weakest vessel in the society. As a result of that belief, they weren't given opportunity like their male counterpart. Opportunity like going to school, serving in public positions and other were deprived from them.

According to that belief, their usefulness is seen in the kitchen and house management. These acts and belief lowered female's confidence. These continued until the United Nations approved 8th of March annually to celebrate Women all round the World. This is how International Women Day came into existence.

This Mascot shows a fragmented butterfly which has wordings inscribed in each fragmented wing. The four qualities shown on the fragmented wings include strength or self-willed, Independency, Boldness and Passion. This qualities should be seen in a woman because they are originator of a tribe or territory. Another interesting write-up there is "NOT JUST THIS DAY BUT EVERYDAY". This means that this characters should be seen on them everyday not only that day. From me, Happy Women Day to every woman in the world.

It's impact of this day is felt in the society in different aspects:

• Confidence Booster: This day has really boosted the confidence of the female gender. The belief of then has tampered with their self-esteem because they knew that their importance was based in the kitchen and home management. But, the belief has been destroyed making them free to explore.
• Power To Explore: Due to the destroyed belief, women has the full right to explore the world. We can see that in their excel in schools, workplace and social gatherings. It is seen that women has similar potentials like men and can handle Public offices.
• Broken Stereotype: Because of this date, the society can no longer view women as weaker vessels anymore. The self-esteem, confidence of a woman is fully back.

The active promoter of this date is the United Nations (UN). Another promoter of this date are churches as they don't overlook the achievement of women in their various fields of endeavor. In my own opinion, I suggest that a seminar should be held where the women can display their talent to the amazement of people.

I invite @bossj23, @vudeme123 and @uduak01 to this contest.
