Women are women because they bring a flavor unique to them. Like orange, tangy and sour. Like how women bring a new understanding of them to the masses under the heat of scrutiny and bigotry. Women are women not because they are delicate and small, but because they're like how apples taste like, aromatic and honey-like. They might be sweet one moment, but they can also be astringent; a taste that some would find unpleasant. Like how society deemed them suitable for managerial roles, and not positions that men take up in the field of construction. Like gritty chalk, an annoyance amidst men's work.
But women are women.
They are powerful and confident, and have the capacity to show compassion. Well, just like men. However, women go beyond more than that, to prove that they were no different than men. Like how durians are fruits, just like any other fruits in the world; but this King of Fruits, many people feel complicated about. Some love it and others hate it; just like how society treats women. In a working environment dominated by men, like the construction field, women must go beyond to show that not only can they do just the same but women could also do so much more.
A woman's perseverance can be strong yet delicate, leaving one with complex feelings. She could be overpowering yet soothing, pungent yet jammy, caustic yet sweet. A woman adapts, changing what they should present to society, to change the bigotry placed upon them, and break the stereotype that society put on them.
