Domanda, Risposta

Today as I was watching a few music videos, two songs had a very similar theme but the interesting part I felt was one song seems to ask questions whereas the other seems to be giving an answer.

"The Man" by Taylor Swift talks about how women face discrimination in society especially in the workplace. The recognition and achievements that she deserves is denied because of her gender.

" I am so sick of running as fast as I can wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man"

There was a time when I asked myself that if I was a man I would have been treated differently and I think most of us would have thought this way. I also have heard stories of how sometimes it becomes difficult to shine even though they have the ability. The label of a woman being weak haunts them in every aspect cutting down the wings whenever it grows slightly.

The next song I chose is from the movie "The great Indian Kitchen". The song talks about woman empowerment and the strength she has within. This song gave me goosebumps every time I watched it, giving a new feeling at every watch.
" With your wisdom, if you awaken your inner self, you are relentless woman spread out across the world."
These few lines are not for one woman but equally appreciates all the women across the globe. If we look at the current scenario we find woman excelling in fields once cut out only for men, it's a great progress that we see.

In conclusion, I found that the first song talks about the struggles a woman go through on a regular basis. The endless questions asked along with bearing the pain of being trampled on is addressed.
In the second song we see the strength of a woman being underlined along with her determination to never succumb to circumstances or 'fate'.
Every woman has strength within her, she needs to embrace and accept that inner strength.
