Visualizing Women's Talent

Most women are in a disadvantaged position in terms of economic autonomy and social recognition, because they shoulder the responsibilities of taking care of themselves in traditional culture, so they often lack opportunities to develop and show themselves. Under the epidemic, it is precisely because of the vulnerable situation, the lack of personal resources and sufficient social support to deal with it, which has caused a double blow. The implicit and explicit cultural oppression in the patriarchal culture has long targeted women, which makes women unable to reverse the predicament they face. At the same time, in the face of the negative label of women's ability in society, women are losing their autonomy and dignity. survive in society. Therefore, it is particularly important for society to recognize women's abilities and provide opportunities for adequate development. In order to provide women-friendly employment opportunities and increase social recognition of women's abilities and contributions, women can regain their autonomy and choose different paths in social life with dignity.
