What does it mean to be an ideal woman?

Personally, “ideal woman” in


here not really means that the woman should satisfies everyone's conception
of what is perfect or should have all the desirable and good characteristics for
themselves. Most people stand that an ideal woman should being beautiful
and feminine, and to have perfect bodies and behaviour. I am disapproving this
view because even an ordinary woman can become her own ideal model as
long as she is a high-principled man and has confidence behaviour which brave
to fight for her right to get a fair treat as others.  Instead of being successful in
career and family life, an ideal woman is not attractive by her own outer
appearance but fascinating others by her high moral quality. She will makes
herself shining like a gold and has values as gold, maybe she get criticism from
others, but she never stop loving herself and showing her loves to others.
An ideal woman is courageous to pursue her dream, not only finding a
perfect husband, living in a big house or having a nice tea at teatime every day.
Otherwise, she desires to leave her comfort zone and get success which she
wants to reach. An ideal woman has capable of competing with others even
though compete with a man. She tries to make a little more progress in
learning each day to enrich herself. Other than that, she can express her own
ideas in life without any aggressive view because she is independent and never
self-centred as she cares about other people's feelings.
Emma Watson is the ideal woman for me. She is well-known with the
cast as the brilliant, inspiring Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films,
which is my favourite character in this film .Beside her excellent acting in the
drama and movies , the most attractive part of herself is being herself, she is
the one who stood in front to deliver a speech to promote women’s rights at
the HeForShe campaign launched by the U.N. Headquarters. She believes that
giving women the same rights, respect, and opportunities will bring a
monumental change to this world. She brought the gender inequality issue in
her speech to the world.
In her speech, she said that “I decided that I was a feminist, and this seemed
uncomplicated to me. But my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an
unpopular word. Women are choosing not to identify as feminists. Apparently, I’m among
the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating, and
anti-men. Unattractive, even. Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one? I am
from Britain, and I think it is right I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is
right that I should be able to make decisions about my own body. I think it is right that
women be involved on my behalf in the policies and decisions that will affect my life. I think
it is right that socially, I am afforded the same respect as men. But sadly, I can say that there
is no one country in the world where all women can expect to see these rights. No country in
the world can yet say that they achieved gender equality. Although gender
discrimination is become a common issue in 21st century, but she still decided
to stand up and speak out this problem bravely, encouraged women unit to
change this phenomenon. Besides, she is not only concern about the women
issues, she is also the ambassador of the non-profit organisation One Young
World. This organisation is aimed to bring together young leaders to speak out
their own ideas and develop the solutions for some of the world’s most urgent
problem.
In a nutshell, every woman can be perfect instead of being successful in
their careers; whether from a lower income family or not; whether getting
further study abroad or not. In my opinion, A woman who is confident, having
positive personalities and always makes great effort to pursue what she wants
to do is the ideal woman that I defined.
