Once upon a time
Once upon a time, men feared powerful women so much, they called them witches! ๐งโโ๏ธ But let’s face it, most women I know have experienced this even in modern times. ๐ Are you one of those strong, fierce women who’ve faced labels like “intimidating”, โstrangeโ, โtoo muchโ or “bossy”? ๐ค
๐ฅ๐งน Men historicly couldn’t comprehend the wonders of women, they resorted to the age-old tactic of labeling them as witches. Witches were considered to possess supernatural powers, which threatened the delicate balance of male supremacy. Thus, the infamous witch hunts began.
Fueled by paranoia and a desperate need to maintain control, men accused women of practicing witchcraft and sentenced them to burn at the stake. Because, after all, what better way to prove one’s dominance than by setting powerful women ablaze? As if healing headaches with herbs was a crime.
๐ฟ๐โโ๏ธ Fast forward to today, and powerful women still in some sense are treated this way. Progress is being made but we still have a long way to go and it’s about time to embrace everyone’s power and uniqueness ๐ช๐
The fear of powerful women has deep historical roots, but as we challenge gender norms and embrace the full spectrum of human potential, it’s crucial to dismantle these outdated fears.
๐ So, let’s stand united as we celebrate and empower the strong women in our lives, making strides in every field imaginable. ๐
โจ Isn’t time to break down barriers and create a world where everyone’s power is recognized and respected? Are you with me?
๐๐ซ Keep shining, powerful women๐๐
