My Dear audience; Respected Mam / sir .

I am pleased to address womens different faces she wears in a world we live in and the gender roles apparent in the society of what we are the part of. In our society and on the basis of our cultural reflection women are socialized to be feminine in an every aspect of her life, in her look, in her nature, in her job, in her role, in her everything which makes her restricted to remain limited in her sexual identity and to behave what is permissible to her guided by the societal norms for which she is the part of. And those who do not enjoy traditional feminine activities such as cooking, and stays at home taking care of children and obey husband) starts to face constant criticism and even humiliation from the society. But my question to you is that why cant women live a life of her own wish? If men can take over the feminine role by positioning himself as a great cook, well known fashion designer and a beautician even so why cant women do men jobs? From my view gender roles are not evident only in peoples work and behavior but in how we do the work and how do we react to others. We are constantly doing gender without realizing it. The fault lies in us in our mindsets, in our beliefs, in our expectations which demands restrictions for women only. The society we live in has always demand a little more from human being than it will practice. The application of traditional gender roles leads to many form of differentiation between men and women. Both sexes are physically capable of learning to cook and sew, yet in our society it is been determined that these tasks should be performed by women. Both men and women are capable of learning to weld and fly, but these functions are generally assigned to men. Why? Why we have differentiated works based on gender? Furthermore if men are allowed to have freedom of their mind and freedom of their life so why cant women be? Today we all know and might have been observed that men now gays like women, for which they are rarely presumed to be deviant. But when it comes to women everybody likes to raise their fingers to exaggerate the issue. Actually there is a tradition social norm in our society that women need to be sheltered, staying at home taking care of the childcare, serving husband, and maintaining a family honor.. Thats it, thats all for women life. And sooner if she turns the way of spending her life round by steeping out to work to achieve her ambitions, to not rely on her husband for every single thing she may need, and to have a independent life, she becomes the target to be accused of deviating from her role. At every time she is the victim, every time she will get blamed of not performing her duties responsibly but when it comes to men we tend to ignore. For instance if a mother announces that she will be late for work or will miss a class because her son has a routine medical check up; we give her a statement little thought. But if the boys father makes the same announcement, we are more likely to wonder how he find himself in this situation. Is he a single father struggling to bring up his son by himself? Could his wife have such pressing business that she cannot adjust her schedule to perform the appropriate parental duties? Consciously or unconsciously we are likely to assume that these parental duties are infact maternal duties, which is in my point of view is incorrect. Same is the case when women go outside to work to pursue her happiness for what she becomes the culprit of divorces and infidelity of men. This is not true, the main problem is in the society we live in, the settle norms and the expectations related to one specific gender and the mindsets of groups and individuals in our society

who think that men holds the dominative status in the society and women subservient to men. The very main reason for divorces and infidelity is a lack of trust between marriage couples. For eg; If a husband tends to be skeptical from his nature so he will continue to doubt his wifes faithfulness even when she is home and he is out for office. Womens work is absolutely not the reason of mens disbelieving indeed him.

Such gender related assumptions commonly lead to differential treatment of men and women. Yet a few people begin life with an unclear sexual identity, and focus on other aspects like being ambitious and to achieve something in life rather than stick to their sexual representations and remain in their sexual identity and act likewise. But I hold a distinct point of view. from my view which is offset by the overwhelming majority begin with a definite sex and quickly receive societal message about how to behave.

This is an excerpt from the address given on the recent WFWP tours of Korea, Japan, America and Europe. As an editor of The Washington Times, I am often invited to address conferences and to speak on television in the United States. And, as mentioned, I have had the privilege of interviewing many of the world's leaders such as Ronald Reagan and the president of North Korea, Kim Il-Sung. During these events, my opinion is asked on all the current events of the day, and I have heard those events addressed by the men who are currently leading the world. But I am most pleased to address women, especially on the issues of the role of women in the world. Why? I have found that in many ways women share a common language. No matter what our culture, no matter what our background, we can understand each other. Isn't this true? I am a wife and mother of three children. I am sure many of you have also had the experience of having a life grow inside of you. Can you remember the moment you held your child in your arms for the first time? There is no more revolutionary moment in a woman's life than this breath stopping event. The world becomes silent as we are filled with the awesome wonder of this small, innocent miracle of life placed so trustingly in our hands. In an instant we become inseparably linked to the human chain of life, the human quest for a better world, this endless quest of hope and dreams. My dear friends, Mrs. Moon has so eloquently spoken of women's responsibility at this time in history. Can it be otherwise? Can we sit by and not ensure a world of hope, a legacy of peace to our children?

Women in the 21st century

I have been asked to speak today on the role of women in the 21st century. This was not an easy topic, I discovered. In preparation for this speech, I read the words and pronouncements of many leading women in America. And I was most surprised. As these women leaders went out and spoke to the young women of America, they addressed only one topic over and over again: how could women more successfully compete with men and learn to behave more like men?

These speeches were often filled with resentment and anger. They were urging women to be tougher, to learn to fight, to learn to "play the game" in the world like men. But I find it very interesting that when I meet with other women in media and in politics many of whom gave up having a family to pursue their goals I find them asking themselves whether their career achievements really add up to the sum of a successful life. The more I studied these ideas and have seen the results of this philosophy, the more I am convinced that women's value will not be in trying to imitate men, or in becoming more like men. Our value will be in honoring our womanhood and femininity, and offering to the world the wisdom that is held in this other, vital half of humanity. My dear friends, at this very moment, in every single city in the world from Nigeria to Nepal a girl is being born. These young ladies will become women in the new century. They will soon be looking to us for guidance on what their hopes, dreams and responsibilities will be in this new world.
