Patriarchy is so deeply rooted in us that at times we don't even realize how often women are exploited on daily basis. Trying best to keep home clutter free and cooking after a 9 to 5 job is considered as a 'sign of love for her family'. These are presented as one of the traits of a strong woman by the mainstream media whereas in reality, she's left with no choice. A very well written piece! Would love to read more of your content. Also, your blog's design is aesthetically pleasing. Keep writing!
