MISSconceptions

(misconceptions about women) 

Misconceptions is something that most of the people carry for one or the other thing. It is really easy to judge people over little things, disregarding the fact that you have no idea about the circumstances they are facing.
There are tons of good and bad misconceptions about Ladies. They are often the topic of fun for numerous things. Incapability of a few women is literally generalized for the whole community!

Here are few such misconceptions about women. The photos and examples will give a tight slap as an answer to those misconceptions. There are lot many examples but one or two are shared.

1. Cries a lot

First of all, crying is not a sign of weakness. Its just the sad feeling flowing through eyes. Resisting tears is not the way to show your strength. And there are women out there who face hell like situations without complaining or shading a tear.
She who begs to feed her kids, She who works day and night for her family, She who washes dishes to buy stuff, She who works in office for 8 hours, She who is the support of her family tree...

They FACE it. They don't CRY.

Mary Edwards Walker 

(November 26, 1832 – February 21, 1919) was an American feminist, abolitionist, prohibitionist , alleged spy,prisoner of war and surgeon. As of 2015, she is the only woman ever to receive the Medal of Honor.After the war, she was approved for the highest United States Armed Forces decoration for bravery, the Medal of Honor, for her efforts during the Civil War. She is the only woman to receive the medal and one of only eight civilians to receive it.

2. Spends too much

Not every women is "Kharchali".

There are women who manage their house in minimum salary of their husbands. They don't buy things for themselves for years. They prove a perfect example of management and hard work.

3. Can't play football or Cricket

Well.. this is one of the most common misconception about females. Since childhood boys tease girls that they can't play "manly games" like football or Cricket. Even today Males consider that girls simply don't play these games. And if she says that she does, they ask with amazement and shock "Really? you play?" with great uncertainty on their face.

Do you know :  Nadine Angerer or Mithali Raj 

Mithali Raj

She led the Indian team to the finals in the Women's Cricket World Cup of 2005 where the team lost to Australia. She is a part-time leg break bowler as well. She is a recipient of the Arjuna award for the year 2003. She currently tops the batting table with 703 ratings points. Her composure when at the crease and ability to score briskly make her a dangerous cricketer. In addition to her ability with the bat, Mithali rolls her arm over bowling leg-spinners and providing variety to the attack. At the 2013 Women's World Cup, Mithali Raj starred as the No.1 Cricketer in the ODI chart among women. She scored 100s: 1 and 50s: 4 in Test cricket, 100s: 5 and 50s: 36 with best bowling of 3/4 in ODI's and 50s: 7 in T20's. Mithali is the second person to achieve 5000 runs in ODI women cricket.

4. Less knowledge of computer

"Girls consider themselves computer masters

 if they can download a movie from torrent."

Often heard this joke? Still nothing funny about it. -_-

A Complete Misconception. There are a lot female computer engineers out there who have proved themselves. 

Do you know :Heddy Lamarr, Susan kare, Grace Hooper 

Grace hopper

She was called the Queen of Software by some and Grandma COBOL by others, Navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper helped invent some of the early English-language programming languages. She is most famously associated with the Common Business-Oriented Language (COBOL), which was based on the FLOW-MATIC language that she designed back in 1958.

5. Can't drive 

Though you can see many girls banging their vehicles on roads these days, but that doesn't mean "girls can't drive". Millions of women in whole world drive safely and teach their family members to do so. One simply can't make statements like the above one.

6. Weak at maths

It is scientifically proved that more no. of man are good at maths than women. But I can still find many girls around me scoring 100 on 100 in mathematics and physics. It is more of a hard work. And most of us can really be good at these subjects if we put enough efforts. 

Do you know : Florence Nightingale, Ada Lovelace, Mary Somerville, Maryam Mirzakhani 

Maryam Mirzakhani

She took part in the International Mathematical Olympiads, becoming the first Iranian student to achieve a perfect score and win two gold medals. In 2014 Maryam Mirzakhani was the first ever woman to receive the Fields Medal, which is sometimes described as a Nobel prize for mathematics. She is now a mathematics Professor at Stanford University in the U.S. and is considered one of the greatest living female mathematicians.

7. Are sensitive

Who doesn't know this women ? Indrani Mukharjee. 

The mother who killed her own daughter and lied to her son about his sister. One of the worst and most complex murder cases. 

Sensitive? 

Bitch please. 

There are more like They can't fly kites, Quarrel a lot, Can't do fighting, Gets Jealous usually, etc etc etc. But mind well not every girl does so and thus you can't joke or pass trolls over such matters. 

 
And last but not the least is, 

8. Loves pink the most..
