What is a Woman?

We are not what society expects us to be; we are not governed by 1950's ideology.

We are not typical; we are not the norm.

We are not just housewives, nor are we just child-bearers.

We are not just a gender, or just a biological sex.

We are not doormats, nor are we here just for your entertainment.

We are so much more.

We are our own voice; we are loud.

We are carers, we are mothers.

We are therapists; we are the support.

We are a size 6; we are a size 24.

We are high heels; we are trainers.

We are businesswomen; we are full-time career chasers.

We are studious; we are intellectual.

We are peace; we are hell.

We are brave; we are warriors.

We are victims; we are survivors.

We are history makers; we are law changers.

We are powerful; we are influential.

We are complicated; we are proud.

We are an identity... We are women.
