But First, there was this story…
|
Obviously, this story didn't actually happen and is outright fake. The story had taken many versions, as you can find here.
Still you can get two lessons from this:
- Verify first the credibility of the story to not fall victim to fake news.
- Women play a huge role in the success of men. "Behind every successful man is a strong woman"
Historically, the purpose of women is to take care of their families. They are treated as items ready to be sold to the highest bidder.
As the world grew more… at least civilized, women's rights are also gaining traction. One great success of these fights was when women were allowed to vote in elections.
Personal Finance is the realm women are comfortable dealing with. This is because of their natural ability to be resourceful. Especially when it comes to the needs of their family.
Also, in a typical Filipino household, the mother is in charge of the budget and the family's well-being. This is why mothers are called Ilaw ng Tahanan.
So it is only natural that we have Female Financial Bloggers dominating the scene.
Let me introduce you to some of them:

Closing Thoughts
The women's struggle for equal rights and recognition is far from over. There are still many nuances that this male-favored world is throwing at them.
Remember, every time we fail to give women the respect they deserve. We also indirectly fail to respect our female loved ones. And most of all, to our God the Creator.
The tagline " WE Make CHANGE Work for Women" was taken from the Philippine Commission on Women website.
