What keeps the journey going is the coexistence of men and women in a community. A woman can find the best way to define and make her presence feel is by having the equality of access to a leading education, participating in politics, and being empowered. In addition to running her household, pursuing a career, raising her children, etc., she participates in politics to broaden the scope of her social participation. Feminists have outlined the status of women, their place in society, and the challenges they face in a variety of contexts. By looking at the roles which women play and the problems they encounter, the current essay seeks to explore how women are portrayed in culture.

Abstract:
Nisai Adab" describes the study of feelings, ideas and reflections of mental capability of women and its mirroring in literature. These feelings distinguish a woman from man and revealed her individualistic characteristics. Literature is a vivid manifestation of an era's social values and demonstration of a society in a region. It also shows ideologies and values which give a direction to a society. Women remains a victim of man's atrocities since centuries. She was persecuted and become the center of man's wrath. Due to her physical weakness she must accepts man's hegemony and could not drive her feelings according to her wishes. "NISAI ADAB" is the branch of literature specific to reflect women feelings in her writings. It gave opportunities to her to claim her right to speak and choose her wishes. persons who work for women rights claim that social, political and economical dependence make her subservient to man' ego. This article will struggle to highlight feminine aspects and ideas reflected in renowned novels, stories and critical commentaries.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay offers a gendered reading of the confluence of violence and faith in Romanian literature, through a reading of two texts: Tatiana Bran’s “Deadly Confession”, and Elie Wiesel’s “Night”. While the former looks at the violence visited upon women in the context of religion and faith, the latter seeks to locate the place of women in the course of the loss of faith in a male context. The essay embeds these readings within the larger context of women and violence in Romanian literature from the 19th century to the present. While the instance of Bran’s novel serves as representative of much of this literature, the example of Wiesel’s autobiographical narrative is uniquely contextualized by the field of Holocaust literature. Nevertheless, it is possible to see these two readings – one, a woman authored text of violence against women, the other, a male authored text of women as a refuge from violence – as complementing each other in the ways in which women respond to faith and the loss of faith.

Abstract:
The Albanians are an ancient people in the Balkans with very rich oral literature, but very late written literature, which was not written until after the 15th century. The late documentation certainly has to do with the existential and historical circumstances that our people lived through. Compared to the age of the people and their oral history, this literature seems to have emerged so late in terms of the authorship of women writers. They were characters before they became women writers. The written literature is simply late in comparison to the antiquity of the people and their oral texts in terms of the authorship of women writers. Before they were characters, they were authors. If we look at the chronological context of Albanian literary historiography, first we had the literature about women, then the literature of women authors, and lately, more and more influenced by secular literature, we have started to create and read feminist literature of our women authors, so we call this literature gender literature. In the process of development of Albanian literature (over time and geographical space), in this paper, I treat the woman from her character to her creativity. I have treated her in this paper both comparatively and influencing and empirically: from the referential level to the narratological level.

Taken from the body axis of subjects and penetrated the depth of the social relations and psychological generated through it, but most of her novels are breaking taboos has boldly as high in the description of intimate relations. - The masculine power is considered as the strategic entrance to the persecution of feminist is the central authority and control over the oppressed in society and especially the Algerian society, especially as this was the authority is the authority of the Father. Did not denounce the authority of the Father, but long-pen authority of the husband and brother. Masculine authority is in the eyes of the writer is the authority racist dictatorship, they are calling for the lost harmony between the female and masculine power, they are rejecting the personality of the woman in Haramlik or Psychological tension which is necessary characters and suffering from spiritual unity in spite of the presence of the man, the husband.

Abstract:
Individuals across the globe have become increasingly active in financial markets. The advent of new technology, the availability of various financial products, the liberalization of the economy and the support of an efficient banking system have all facilitated the participation of investors in Indian financial markets. Household savings form a significant part of investments in any economy. In Indian context, the percentage of savings is quite high. The high percentage of savings in India is primarily on account of the savings made by women in India. The role of women in investment decision-making in India cannot be ignored. Therefore, the objective of the study is to provide insights into the characteristics that act as strengths and weaknesses of women and to bring out the opportunities and threats faced by them as investors. In the present study, the diverse literature available worldwide on investment decisions of women has been explored and analysed. The findings of the study revealed that women are holistic thinkers, balanced, intuitive and quality conscious. They adopt a futuristic approach and perform in-depth research prior to investing. They are good savers and at the same time self-controlled. All these characteristics acts as their strengths while undertaking investment decisions. On the other hand, risk aversion, conservative attitude, lower levels of financial knowledge, lack of confidence, too much dependence on guidance from others, reluctant to cause unnecessary change in status quo, poor health and religiousness are their weaknesses. The microfinance, financial literacy and women empowerment initiatives intend to provide opportunities for their growth and development whereas a lesser amount of pay, shorter and interrupted employment history, and exclusion from informal networks act as threats to women’s financial well-being. The study suggests that the endeavours made by women and the support from the society is needed in order to convert the weaknesses and threats of women into their strengths and opportunities for them, thereby improving their participation in financial markets.

Abstract:
Palanthamil literatures are literatures which are the biographical record of Palanthamil. The Sangam literature is the best of them all. In the Sangam literature, it is the introductory songs rather than the exodus that convey the biological values ​​of our Adithamizhan. Intro songs are all about the event of the leader, the leader's love. In the inner life the leader separates the leader for the sake of war or for the sake of material. The leader should wait for the leader to arrive. Therefore, in the Sangam literature, the woman has been the only one to take care of the family, especially the children, from home to be the male interpreter. However, women were respected during the Sangam period. Education, excelled in questions. Forgotten women lived with heroism as their honor. The importance of women diminished after the society in which they lived during the Sangam period was transformed into a landed society. The man sought to subdue the woman by his physical strength and by the woman's inability to do certain things. Thus, feminist rituals are the result of the male race attempting to oppress the female in the name of learning. In Sangam literature, female rituals are subjected to various rituals of the society from birth to death. Some of these rituals are performed to keep women safe. The mind and body of women matures through these rituals. However, due to certain rituals, women suffer a lot. The study reveals that women who have lost their husbands and helpless women are treated with contempt by this society because they marry men who do not have personality traits.

By delving into the rich tapestry of women's literature, the study aims to elucidate how these narratives serve as powerful vehicles for expressing and shaping societal perceptions of female strength. Additionally, the research investigates the role of literature in fostering resilience among women, both in terms of personal empowerment and societal transformation. Ultimately, this exploration not only highlights the resilience inherent in women's stories but also underscores the transformative potential of literature in shaping narratives of strength and triumph for women across diverse contexts and cultures. Several literary works are analyzed, especially La estrella de rubíes by Carmen Martel.

Abstract:
Pregnant women's nutrition is an important factor that must be met and taken into account during their pregnancy. Pregnant women and their fetuses benefit greatly from good nutrition during pregnancy. Nutritional intake throughout pregnancy is still something that should be considered for the womb's health. Pregnant women should get a good nutritional intake that includes four healthy five perfect foods in order to keep the mother and fetus immune during the pandemic. The purpose of this study is to look into the literature on pregnant women's nutrition. This study is a sort of literature review conducted using electronic databases such as PubMed and Google Schoolar. Each data-based publishing year is limited to the last ten years, beginning in 2011-2021. The publications obtained through the search include articles that include both international and national articles, and they will be then evaluated. The findings revealed that a pregnant woman during this pandemic requires additional nutrition since the mother must better maintain the immunity of the body and the fetus in her womb during this pandemic. If a pregnant woman normally requires 80.000 calories during pregnancy, the needs during the pandemic must be increased and presumed once more. During the pandemic, pregnant women should require some additional nutrients such as daily nutritional needs, supplements, iron, vitamin C, and macronutrient demands containing carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. To address the nutritional demands of pregnant women during a pandemic, pregnant women are recommended to eat breakfast every day, eat high-fiber foods, and enhance nutrient intake.

Abstract:
Feminist movements and Dalit feminist movement in India are mainly based on the experience of Repression and gender discrimination. Patriarchy, gender disparity and sexual violence are the basic reasons for these movements and they also find place prominently in the writings of Dalit women as they have come forward to write their experiences from women's point of view around 1980s. Baby Kamble, Urmila Pawar in Marathi, Geeta Nagabhushan in Kannada, P. Shivakami, Bama in Tamil have got national level consideration. Dalit women were raped; insulted and abused by the upper caste people. They are insecure in the society as they have been exploited on the various levels. This feeling of insecurity of the Dalit women is the central theme of their writings. These women writers have come forward to express their ideas, their experiences in social violence as well as in domestic violence and thus they protest their traditional existence with anger and anguish. Geeta Nagabhushan’s dalit novels, Barna’s Sangati (2005), P. Shivakani's Grip of Change (2006) are initial important writings of dalit feminism; Datit feminism writing is different from the conventional way of Feminist writing. Their experiences, expression, method of narration are extremely different from the upper caste women writers. It is found that every woman in the world has been degraded to second grade citizenship. The Dalit women in India suffer more due to their Dalit identity.

Abstract:
Menopause is a permanent termination of the menstrual cycle caused by the loss of activity of ovarian follicles which is enforced when experiencing amenorrhea for 12 months. The mean age for women to stop menstruating was 51.5 years. The cause of menopause is a decrease in ovarian hormones. When the ovaries stop working and estrogen levels drop, a woman will experience several complaints such as changes in menstrual patterns, vasomotor, somatic, and psychological complaints, sleep disorders, sexual disorders, urogenital disorders, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease. Physical, psychological, social and cultural factors are factors that influence women’s sexual function. The ageing process is known to increase the prevalence of sexual dysfunction. Female sexual dysfunction prevalence is quite high, range from 38-85.2%. Sexual disorders can take many forms and clinical symptoms. Circulating estrogen levels have been shown to influence sexual desire, activity, experiences, and problems in sexually active postmenopausal women. Deficiency of estrogen will cause vaginal atrophy which can affect sexual dysfunction. Many factors influence sexual dysfunction, both biological and psychological, in postmenopausal women. The goal of managing sexual disorders in postmenopausal women is to maintain age-related function. Vulvovaginal complaints should be managed individualized and depends on the severity of symptoms, medical history and lifestyle of the patient.

Women empowerment refers to empowering or enabling women to make decisions in life and let them do what they want. Women empowerment is much more significant to any nation’s progress. Methods: The current research approach is review-based descriptive research that relies heavily on secondary sources of data. The study looked at a number of research publications on the key determinants of women empowerment. Results: An extensive past literature is reviewed in order to get final results of the study. The study came up with several determinants of women empowerment in the society. Conclusions: Women have undergone and suffered much more in the male dominated society. Women became more aware of their importance as time passed. Women’s independence arrived as a breath of fresh air because they were not permitted to make decision making for them. There are several factors which affect the empowerment of women in the society.
