Essay on Role of Women in Society: Women are equally important in society as men are. They are the backbone for a progressing nation. Demographically, half a population of the country constitutes women, and they deserve equal importance and rights in society.

The hand that rocks the cradle

Is the hand that rules the world. W.R. Wallace – The Hand That Rules The World

For centuries men considered women the less intelligent of the sexes. This terribly wrong perception caused immense loss to their self-dignity. But, at present, women have been playing major roles in politics, economy, household, society, and nation-building. The timid female of the past has been replaced by a youthful, fashion-conscious and smart girl. Women are jostling shoulders with men and competing with them in engineering, sciences, space research, medicine, and business. This marked change in their status reflects the fact that their emancipation is almost complete.

“O fairest of creation Last and best of all God’s works.“ John Milton, Paradise Lost

Only, a few decades ago, the condition of the woman was increasingly poor. Her position was secluded and she was assigned a lower status in society. She was virtually condemned to lead her life as a beast of burden. For a very long time, she was unable to raise her status from a mere household drudge. She was forced to run the house and do all its furnishing, cleaning, cooking, sewing, sweeping, dusting, washing and so on. Besides this, she had to rear her children and serve her husband. She was no better than a slave. She had to be respectful and submissive before men. They were denied all sort of higher education and were strictly confined to the four walls of the house. She was always treated in a brutal manner and was generally regarded as the silly, sentimental and dull creature. It was a common belief that women were created only to please men.

Man is the hunter; woman is his game. The sleek and shining creatures of chase. We hunt them for the beauty of their skins. They love us for it,……” Tennyson

Shakespeare addressed her as Frailty and some other well-known writers depicted her as the treacherous creature that tempts men to their doom. The metaphysical belief that “Eve tempted Adam” and he fell made the things much worse for women. Gone are those days when all this befell women and subjected them to unspeakable suffering both physically and mentally. Women have now been emancipated from the slavery of men to a considerable extent. The widespread illumination of knowledge has changed the situation altogether.

Women have finally come out of the four walls of the house and found their way to the higher educational institutions. And education, in turn, has enlightened them broadening their outlook and horizon simultaneously. They have set up their own organization for the welfare and progress of women at large. They have started claiming equal rights with men and have succeeded appreciably on many fronts. They have entered practical life and are playing a significant role for both their country and family. It is observed in recent times that a number of women are entering the once male-dominated management areas. They are taking an active part in the politics of the country and are fully determined to compete against men in every professional walk of life.
