Role of women in the society

The modern day is rife with real life examples of highly successful and influential women. They have slowly and
steadily established themselves in positions which are important to the growth of any society.

A woman’s role in any situation can be inferred from the behaviour of a mother. She is strong yet caring, controlling
yet nurturing, and fiercely protective towards her loved ones.

From leading governments to leading space missions, managing companies to managing toddlers in preschool,
women are contributing immensely across all walks of life.
