HAPPY WOMENS’ DAY
Humans are animals, yet we are not animal-like.
Over time, humanity has evolved from unknown pre-human species to the present state of Homo sapiens. While our bodily anatomy is not vastly different from other species in the animal kingdom, one significant distinction sets us apart—our ability to reason, communicate, and shape society beyond mere instinct.
In nature, gender inequality is common among animals. In most species, males tend to dominate, while females bear the primary responsibility of reproduction and nurturing offspring. Males, in turn, focus on providing and protecting. However, humans are different. We have transcended these natural instincts, using reason and intellect to redefine our relationships and roles.
The Shift in Human Society
With the development of language and communication, humans not only interacted but also understood each other’s needs and emotions. As civilizations emerged, societies became patriarchal, primarily because women took on the role of raising children. Over time, this led to distinct societal divisions between men and women.
