Steemit Engagement Challenge- S9W3: What is a Woman?

"Women are beautiful as Fiction and dangerous as Fact" Rocky Gerung

The sentence uttered by an academic and philosopher in an interview on a television station was once popular and became material for light discussion for us men. At first glance it sounds abstract and has multiple interpretations. But when examined further, there is also a point ha.ha.ha

However, unfortunately this statement is not a personal opinion but a satire. Rocky Gerung also added that the statement had nothing to do with an incident. He illustrated that women in politics are always created with special organizations such as women's parties, as if they want to respect women when in fact they want to control (women). Rocky believes that women can endure their suffering more than men. Women can overcome suffering by storing it. Rocky explained that the great power of women can only be felt if men are willing to humble themselves a little. “Nature equips women to be independent, while men depend on tools and envy women. So men think, then women have to be my equipment," said Rocky.

I deliberately quote Rocky Gerung statement and explanation as an opening because there are many interesting facts from this statement about women.

What does the word "Woman" mean to you?

Women are always identified with beauty, patience, gentleness, weakness and mystery. These properties can be seen from the physical form, motion, sound and others. So it's no wonder, since we were young, men have been taught by our parents to always protect women.

Behind the shortcomings, women have many advantages that are not owned by men in general. Women are more pain-resistant, sensitive, stronger (not physically) and can do many things at one time. Another fact is that women are stronger and more resilient in dealing with difficult situations, especially in family matters.

Understanding the woman is impossible, quite understandable. It was more real to make him happy.

Do you think that women are born only to be housewives?

The gift of women being born with the advantage of being able to do many things at one time is an affirmation that women can be wives/mothers as well as have careers. There is a lot of evidence to support my statement.

Although it cannot be denied, that there are still beliefs and customs that require women to only be housewives. But this understanding began to be abandoned.

What is the role of a woman in your society?

Since ancient times, women have played an important role in social life. Many women become leaders and figures in society. We aceh people will never forget the services of Cut Nyak Dhien, Cut Meutia and Admiral Malahati (the first female admiral in the world) who bravely fought (war) to expel colonialism from Aceh.

Today, many women hold important positions in society, government and other important positions. The existence of women is no longer underestimated but is an important element in change for a better world.

Who are the most important women in your life?

"Heaven is at the feet of the mother" is a parable of the virtues and obligations for a child to serve his mother.

Mother is the most important woman in my life. His services are irreplaceable. And I will not be able to repay his services and sacrifices. Alhamdulillah, I still have a mother, her happiness is the top priority in my life, nothing else.
