In this struggle, she vies for this not to downgrade her femininity .. really difficult and exhausting equation.

The daily life of women in most regions in the world still lacks the well-being they deserve, as females happen to be the sole responsible for about 40% of the world's families, according to an article by Lee Rose in April 2018 published at Brides magazine.

Most of the jobs women do are temporarily. Figures reveal that 43% of the labor force in the agricultural sector in the developed countries are women, while they are 70% in developing countries. In addition, women account for two-thirds of the world's illiteracy rate according to statistics from a UN report.

According to a WHO report, 35% of women, globally, have been exposed to physical or sexual violence from their partner, to the extent of murder in a number of crimes.

The challenges which women face in their daily life, for the sake of completing their education and earn their living, are only small part of those challenges they face on larger scale. Women in the world are paying the price of conflicts, that are never calm down, in different regions and countries.
