  STORY OF AN OUTRAGEOUS AND LIVELY PRINCESS MARGARET Let’s start from the beginning of her life. Margaret was born on 21 august 1930 at Glamis Castle in Scotland, in her mother’s ancestral home, and was affectionately known as Margot within the royal family. As per the royal rule, some particular people and caretakers are appointed to be at the place or room where the royal mother gives birth to take care of the child and mother and accurately note the time and gender of the baby. The home secretary J.R Clynes, was present at the time of Margaret's birth to verify the birth. The registration of her birth had been delayed for several days to avoid her being numbered 13 in the parish register because in some cultures 13 is known to be an unlucky number. She was the fourth legal successor in the line of succession to the British throne. Her father was the Duke of York the second son of King George V and Queen Mary. The Duchess of York originally wanted to name her second daughter Ann

             NIGHT WITCHES- ALL FEMALE MILITARY AVIATORS IN WORLD WAR II Once we read their name which was night witches the first question that arises in our minds is why are they were been called with that spooky horrible name. Actually, the Germans Nicknamed them the Nachthexen or “night witches” because the whooshing noise their wooden planes made resembled that of a sweeping broom which is used by witches in urban legends. This sound was the only warning the Germans had. Planes were too small to show up on radar or on infrared locators, said Steve Prowse, author of the screenplay The Night Witches, a non-fiction account of the little-known female squadron. The 588 th was the most highly decorated female unit in the Soviet Union air force and any German pilot who downed a “witch” was awarded an Iron Cross as a prize. Night witches crew consists of total forty-two women. HOW THIS JOURNEY STARTED? From the clear starting of this unit, women were not at all welcomed by their ma

  WHAT ADRIENNE RICH WANTS TO EXPRESS THROUGH AUNT JENNIFER’S TIGERS?   source- Pinterest It is the same poem we have read in our class 12th English book and maybe some were now reading this poem in their class 12th syllabus but this poem was something that strikes on my mind when I first read it in my class 12th class. With the use of many alliterations and metaphors, this poem represents a powerful and realistic story. The poem is as follows:   Aunt Jennifer's tigers prance across a screen,  Bright topaz denizens of a world of green.  They do not fear the men beneath the tree;  The pace in sleek chivalric certainty. Aunt Jennifer's finger fluttering through her wool  Find even the ivory needle hard to pull.  The massive weight of Uncle's wedding band  Sits heavily upon Aunt Jennifer's hand. She also wants to convey a message that one-day aunt Jennifer will die but her art will stay alive and her desire to be fearless When Aunt is dead, her terrified hands will lie  St

Three BRAVE FEMALE EGYPTIAN PHARAOHS CREDITS- https://emanuelthepoet.wordpress.com/ P haraoh is the  name or word used for the monarchs of ancient Egypt. When it comes to know more about Egyptian culture we would realize that Egyptian women were always treated as a true better half or superior to men but when it comes to ruling a whole country women were underestimated most of the times. As in Egypt marrying real brother, sister or cousins is common to secure the royal blood in the family itself so most of the royals were married to their family members too.  Before Roman Empire in 30 BCE reigned the Egyptian empire the total of 9 women made their journey and made their place in the chair of a king and ruled Egypt. But today we talk about three of them. 1.

So let’s discuss what Jauhar ritual is basically As per this ritual the wives of the warriors would take their children and jump into the fire (commonly called kund) after their husbands were faced with defeat.

The main purpose of Jauhar was to save women of a particular region or territory which is now captured by foreign invaders from enslave

HOW DO EDUCATION SYSTEM STARTED SEXUALIZING YOUNG GIRLS IN INDIA? Credit: Time Magazine The strategy of policing girls or putting girls under a particular dress code had been started from the very beginning of the girl’s education system because girl’s education started very late and wasn’t even considered appropriate for girls in general. At the beginning of the 19th century, people do start educating women just because of the fact that “mothers are the first teacher of their children” even though this fact is correct but society at that time was just providing primary or secondary education to women at that time in other countries like Greece, America, Britain, etc higher education was still not considered important. The idea of “good housemaker or household women” remained for a long time and restricted women to have formal education.   Headlines such as girls are sent back home from school for wearing clothes which show too much skin, young girls being punished inhumanly for breaki
