Here's a thought-experiment: What does the word "demancipation" stand for? Coined by former Dutch new reporter Aldith Hunkar, it means: how would society be structured if it were shaped by women? As women, we relate to the solar calendar, while our system experiences the four seasons in a single month. And especially don't talk about it in a male-dominated environment. Think about it. What would be different? Joris Luyendijk wrote a beautiful hommage to his mother on this International Women's Day. In this article he reminds us of the fact it has only been 50 years ago, when women were let go from work when they got married or pregnant. He draws a paralel between the apartheid-system and being a woman in this day and age. If you can, read the article or translate it into English. Let's lift up women all around the world, protect their rights and celebrate each one of them. Not only today on International Women's Day, but every single day! 🙋‍♀️ My name is Marijne van den Kieboom 🙆‍♀️ Psychologist, Executive Coach & Leadership Trainer 🔦 My work is to guide you in examining your personal barriers.
