When a girl takes birth from that day to being an aged woman, she has to face discrimination at every point in their life, women always want to be loved and valued as the men in our society. When the girl is small we can see discrimination the type of toys she has gifted with a kitchen set and dollhouse is literally wrong, when they are in school they have to face discrimination by teachers, In college, they have face ragging. Also not getting equal pay and opportunities in the workplace, all things cause a toll on mental health, they have a lot of restrictions on personal freedom, nobody asks women opinion in the family crucial decision, even when women go for job work-life balance predominantly preached to her, even passing of vulgar comments by boys when women are around through women feels anxious, and emotional, even in news we see so many cases of rape, some women are living in fear. This also affects their even man have good intentions when talking but women just ignored or feel shy to talk just because they already assume negative thoughts about him it happens when women have already face some trauma earlier. Women who want to maintain the relationship pile up their feelings and got into depression. Women can take care of mental health by explaining how they are feeling to their close ones, and writing in dairy. Doing meditation helps to clear negative thoughts from the brain. If they face a wrong behavior and do not say anything they should go for a walk, calm their mind and come back give a reply to them. Our society should try to end discrimination we are human beings men and women equal and deserves equal respect no one is superior people should break this stereotypes I think we should learn from nature it never discriminates while giving sunlight or water it treats human equally then why we human discriminates ourselves.
