The practical manifestation of love is care. Time and empathy are the ultimate currency of this care. When one thinks of women, the first thing that comes to mind is tender care, from the cradle, through all stages of life. This natural tendency spills into the care for family, care for community, care for business, care for corporations and care for nations. When this is missing in the character and behaviour of a woman, we often wonder if she is a woman. To a woman, the power to give this care and the sense of responsibility associated with it is inborn; it is natural. This notion is not schooled or learned. It comes naturally to women.

The love of women

In my view, women are objects of intense love and affection. They craze, they absorb and thrive on the intensity of affections in their lives. Being a woman, to many is simply the ability to attract love and affection—the more easily or effortlessly done, the better. However, to the woman, accepting this love and affection ignites a sense of responsibility usually defined as care. Her emotional balance comes from the opportunity to give care in return for the love and affection she receives. The giving of this ‘care’ brings her to self-completeness. Often, the world misses this point, and inadvertently fails to tap into one of the most powerful resources defining the well-being of humanity.

Ethics of role

The ethics of role examines how societal expectations shape individual responsibilities, particularly for women. Traditionally, women have been assigned roles as caregivers, nurturers, and supporters, often limiting their leadership, business, and governance opportunities. This has changed on the awareness that the power of care applies to all spheres of life. It is further amplified by ethical considerations that question whether these roles are just or restrictive, advocating for a balance that allows women to pursue their aspirations without societal bias. A fair society should uphold agency, equity, and respect, ensuring that roles are chosen based on ability and preference rather than imposed by tradition. Ethical role distribution should empower women, valuing their contributions in all spheres of life.
