8th: no longer the day for the claim of women's rights,
but the celebration for the recognition of their natural
and precious peculiarities!
In a society that would like
to flatten all men, to deprive them of any cultural,
ideal, thought or sex distinctions, the awareness of the
differences impressed by nature becomes, for all men and
in particular for women, the most profound and
indispensable element of emancipation.
The woman,
especially in some areas of the world, has yet to see her dignity fully
recognized. This is not what is often mistakenly identified as the
search for a mere "equality" with the male sex, but is the possibility
to be "freely" a woman.
One of the greatest
injustice and humiliation women can suffer is to be considered as a
"species" to be protected. Women do not need to be "mortified" by the
“pink quotas”- they simply need to see their freedom to be women
recognized. And when a woman has her dignity recognized, she very often
exceeds men!
The "great women"
are not only the famous ones, but also those who face the challenges,
the joys and the gratifications of life with tenacity every day and
those that are realized without the need for separate quotas!
It is right that a
woman can freely choose her own life, it is equally right to allow women
who wish to undertake jobs and tasks that traditionally, either because
of the need for physical strength, or due to natural predisposition, are
associated with men. But it is wrong to consider it normal! Instead, it
is a further demonstration of how tenacious women, either for pleasure
or necessity, are able, more than men, to emancipate themselves.
