Taking the World in their Stride: An Audacious Display of Self Assertion by Ammu and Virmati

Abstract

Metamorphosis of women from
where they have been either religiously
eulogized or mercilessly excoriated to bear
familial responsibilities and societal roles to an
independent, free and rational being where
they have been accepted though not without
raised eyebrows and constant fudges has not
been an overnight wonder. However, the new
women no longer hold men responsible for
their plight; leaving bitterness behind, now
they are on their voyage to trace their own
identity with firm belief in themselves. This
paper focuses on how assertively women have
embarked on the odyssey, how they have
worked hard to go by their own decisions and
ultimately how they take their own course of
life, bear the result of their actions and how
gloriously they bask in their achievements,
however insignificantly trivial they might seem
to others.
