Equal=Equity? ….
By Sadje
It happens to be the theme for International Women’s Day 2023. The idea is to not just stop at equality. The images will clarify the idea.


➰➰➰
Women aren’t equal to men in life
They are superior to them in many aspects
But when you look at the rights given to them
In this society of ours, they are lagging behind
So now we women don’t just want equality we demand equity too!
Now we demand to be treated fairly and given equal opportunities
Just like any other member of the society
We shouldn’t be handicapped from the start of the race
By tying weight of our womanhood around our ankles
By loading the dice against us because of our XX- chromosomes
We do more but receive less both in acknowledgment and money
Always remember, without women the society cannot exist
For we are the mothers that birth the sons…

Her very many colors — by Artie and Stu
What she must see?
She has very many
colors seemingly to spare
but uses them carefully
I watch, she knows
in her very eyes
in her very heart
she knows every hue.
My friend cribs about her tough life in a sales job, her monstrous boss and unfair incentive schemes. Clearly, she does not enjoy her job - nor did I. But being conversant with something helped me navigate the downturns better. I steer the conversation to what she’d like to do – lounge around in pyjamas, … Continue reading On the other side

Taking back our power ….. by Susi Bocks

Inspired by Reena’s Exploration Challenge #271 – Embrace Equity &
Moonwashed Weekly Prompt #133 – Conversant
all women are conversant
with the inequality befallen their sex
millennia of injustice
every generation fighting
all human beings
if they’d only embrace equity
acting as a collective
what a glorious world we’d be living in
All We Ask …. by Diana Coombes

Reena’s inspiration this week is https://reinventionsreena.wordpress.com/2023/03/09/reenas-xploration-challenge-271/
#EmbraceEquity a theme for National Women’s Day, which was yesterday.
Equality
Embrace being female, equality, battle for equity
equal pay, rights, is all we are asking. The same as
men, not better. We strive to make a better life for all.
Equality and equity for all women and disabled people …. by Carol Anne
I am disabled
And I am a woman
I deserve equality
And equity
Most disabled people
And even most women
Don’t get this
But we should!
I strive
To inform
The world
That
Women are strong
Its not the end of the world
To be disabled
Disabled people are strong, too!
Please treat all women
And all disabled people
With respect
With equity
And as equals

Equality in everything —- by Jim Adams
Does making things equal for everyone go against the law of survival of the fittest? If everything were equal in this world, what would happen to competition? Motivation is a driving force of human life and without it, nothing would ever be accomplished. In Animal Farm, George Orwell said that “All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.” Power is always abused and there is no such a thing as an honest politician. Most people are destined to be followers because they lack ambition and the determination to be in charge. It has been said that “Equality is giving everyone a shoe. Equity is giving everyone a shoe that fits. Justice is when we don’t need to give everyone a shoe because they can get their own shoe and that shoe will fit.” Equity is the quality of being fair and impartial and that is more…
