    Since its initiation in 2017, the #MeToo movement has had a major influence on how sexual assault and harassment are treated. The way the movement impacted include;

    • Boosted awareness: Sexual harassment and assault are more common than people realize, and this campaign has made victims more willing to come forward.
    • Strengthening of Survivors: Many survivors feel encouraged to tell their tales, which promotes a community of support and understanding.
    • Responsibility: Prominent figures in many sectors have faced consequences for their conduct, resulting in exits, dismissals, and legal proceedings.
    • Modifications to Policy: Businesses and organizations have put stricter guidelines and training initiatives in place to safeguard staff members and stop harassment.
    • Cultural Shift: Respect and equality are being promoted, and there is no tolerance for sexual misbehavior.
    • Legislative Action: To help provide victims with legal redress, several areas have passed or reinforced laws against sexual harassment and assault.
    • Assistance networks: As a result of the movement, there are now more services and networks available to survivors, providing social, emotional, and legal assistance.
    • Dialogue and Education: To foster a more positive attitude in society, candid conversations around consent, power dynamics, and polite behavior have increased.

    All things considered, the #MeToo movement has acted as a catalyst for change, pushing institutional, cultural, and legislative changes to confront and stop sexual harassment and assault.

    Men can be better allies in the following ways:

    1. Being better listeners: Before attempting to problem solve from the outset, men should lend an open-minded, empathetic and receptive ear to those raising their voices so that they can understand each other’s issues. This opens one’s mind to the inherent privileges they were holding, and allows them to reflect on various issues deeply.
    2. Making small changes: In a country like India where unequal distributions of labour and power are often latent, small changes go a long way. For example, doing a share of housework with wives/mothers as a member of the household, not a helper. Other ways may be:
      • When noticing snide remarks and misogynistic attitudes from other men, immediately countering them outright.
      • Uplifting the women around them in daily life, not only in feminist circles but others as well.
    3. Engaging in intelligent discourse: Educating oneself about the various issues plaguing not only women but other minorities, and engaging in discussions with feminists who are actively working to better society. Through intelligent discourse, it becomes apparent that feminism is not “man-hating” as some say, but a movement against patriarchy, the removal of which benefits men also.
    4. Not viewing women as ‘other’: Women and men are indeed both from earth, and although differences exist, women are capable of everything men are capable of. Therefore, understand that although certain conditions must be altered for both the genders to function optimally, it is must for a balanced society.

    Throughout history, women have faced many socioeconomic challenges in their quest for economic independence. The suffrage movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries was a watershed moment. It brought women out of their homes to challenge gender norms and pave the way for a future where they had more rights – both at home and at work. With changing social expectations, more women are now joining the workforce. In fact, many of them are rising the corporate ladder and breaking the glass ceiling.

    Female business leaders such as Kiran Majumdar Shaw, Safra Katz, Jane Fraser, and Mary Barra are role models for the new generation. Their journeys are inspirational for young women who want to take up leadership positions in the corporate sector. Women leaders are increasing the focus on gender equality policies by creating inclusive work environments. Their constant need to balance work and personal life also pushes women to create a better work-life balance for their teams through remote work, flexible hours, and parental leave. Simply put, female leaders are not just improving organisational culture, they are also bringing in social change.

    Social movements in post-colonial India significantly contributed to women’s empowerment by advocating for legal reforms, such as the Hindu Code Bill, which aimed to abolish discriminatory practices like child marriage and promote women’s rights to property and divorce. Movements like the Women’s Indian Association and All India Women’s Conference provided platforms for women to voice concerns and mobilize for change. Leaders such as Sarojini Naidu and Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay played crucial roles in advancing women’s education and economic independence. Grassroots initiatives in rural areas promoted literacy, healthcare, and economic self-sufficiency among women, fostering social and political empowerment. Overall, these movements challenged patriarchal norms, increased women’s participation in public life, and laid the foundation for ongoing efforts towards gender equality in India.

    First and foremost the patriarchal mindset needs to be dealt with. In our community or in any community per say, the ultra misogyny which primarily takes you to the stereotype of ‘Alpha male hood‘ or ‘phallocentrism‘ is a big challenge. And this is so contagious that even women are its victims. Women often believe that their empowerment is when the ‘man’ of the family does well in the society. So how to break this? Of course, education. And that poses the next challenge- Lack of education for women. Overall education for all may have seen a rise, but still in many villages and the remotest corners, education for women is considered a luxury. They are forced to do household chores rather. And if they want to go against the norms? That brings the next issue, violence against women. Women are subject to violence in the form of sexual assault, domestic violence and what not. To get over these challenges, a person needs huge self belief and hunger.

    In today’s world, where women are trying their best to keep up with society’s progress and development, it’s absolutely important to empower them. In fact, it’s not just the right thing to do; it’s essential for sustainable development and a fair future. 

    When we empower women, we help build stronger futures and more stable communities.

    Moreover, one of the main reasons women’s empowerment is so important is its impact on economic growth. When women have access to education, resources, and job opportunities, entire economies benefit. 

    In fact, research solidifies this fact. Studies show that when women participate in the workforce, productivity and GDP increase. By supporting half of the population, we open doors to innovation and entrepreneurship.

    Besides that, empowering women improves the well-being of families and communities. Women often take on caregiving roles, and when they have access to education and healthcare, they can make better decisions for their families. This leads to healthier children and a more stable society.

    Women’s empowerment is also key to achieving gender equality and eliminating discrimination. Despite progress, women still face obstacles to equal opportunities and rights. Empowering women involves challenging outdated norms and creating inclusive policies that support women’s leadership and participation at all levels.

    Therefore, empowering women is absolutely important for a better, more equitable world. By investing in women’s education, health, and economic opportunities, we can unlock the potential of half the population and create a brighter future for everyone.

    According to me as a women, there should be mensuration leave for atleast 3 days because I have seen many women or girls going through period pain as hell but on the other side there is other womens who don’t feel any pain at all.

    1] In fact I have seen my close friend, she is like consuming turmeric with water balls for pain relief.

    2] I have seen my mother – on the periods, continue vomiting and pain (back pain) -(specifically).

    3] Whereas in my case, I sometimes feel worst pain but sometime there is no pain but the body pain and back pain is common.

    On periods every women is going some through body pain , specially back pain.

    i.e other thing – she is not showing it in front of everyone.

    For working + married women , period days become more difficult because she have to work at home as well as office .

    So according to my point of view, mensuration leave is must according to company or by measuring other factors also.
