There have been a lot of struggles and obstacles that women all over the world have had to overcome. Women have always been a subject of patriarchy, that social arrangement which favors men over women. Given this reality, women, initially, have had to deal with fighting for the right to vote and right to be equally treated with men in terms of job opportunities. Over the years this has extended to fighting against discrimination because unfortunately, women, regardless of the many changes that have been effected to equalize men and women, are still victims to a large extent of bigoted men or their fellow women who see things otherwise. However, notwithstanding the many setbacks, women everywhere are still driven to be empowered on their own, overcoming natural and social boundaries that limit and deny them of their natural right to be equal with men, to affirm the notion that women can be capable of doing what men can do and that there are no gender-specific activities meant only for women or for men.
