Want to live life on your own terms? THESE are the 6 things women need to stop seeking permission for today

For ages, women have been suppressed and they've been living with it. They've been asked to stay timid and are bound by multiple social norms and stereotypes. For years, women have been dominated by men and remained to be their property instead of their partner. Women have been bound to gender roles as have men. But with the changing world, this too needs to change but sometimes we're responsible for our misery. You cannot just sit in a place and complain about the world being unfair when you haven't done anything to make it better. There's nothing wrong with wanting the right things and being unapologetic about it. Women still allow the orthodox people to rule over them. Now, many of you must be thinking that "but we allow women to do this and that" and many must be thinking that, "I'm allowed to do whatever I want" and that's where the problem lies. Women shouldn't have to seek approval to do things they want if they're grown-ups.

1. A woman should not need permission to wear what she wants. As a grown-up woman, you shouldn't need someone to approve what you wear or how you wear it. If you want to cover yourself from head to toe of if you want to show some skin, it should be a personal choice. You don't need to ask your husband or boyfriend or father or your mother or your mother-in-law for permission to wear something that you would if it weren't for them.

2. Every person has a voice and an opinion. There is nothing wrong with being opinionated. Having an opinion doesn't make you a bad person even if your opinion is biased. You need to watch and learn and you cannot grow without having a mind of your own and opinions. Don't be afraid to voice your opinion because you're a woman. Even if you're wrong there is some scope for change and improvement but that cannot happen if you have no opinions whatsoever so, don't ask for permission before you say it out aloud.

3. As a woman, you should never be limited to a career choice. It's your life and you have to live with it. A suggestion can be taken into consideration but don't allow anyone to shove their choice of career down your throat. Don't pick a career to please anyone but yourself.

4. Don't ask for someone's permission to chase your dreams. It's okay to have different dreams and if your dream is having a family, chase it and if you want to get a pet, get one and if you want to travel the world alone, book those tickets and you don't need anyone's approval to live life on your own terms.

5. Don't ask for permission to succeed and grow in life. Don't give up on opportunities because someone did not allow you to take it up. Say yes to that promotion and go for that camp and take those classes because you want to and that's alright.

6. Don't seek someone's approval to fall in love. Love just happens. You cannot choose who you love or marry and no one should take that decision for you but you. It's a big step and a major change and it is you who has to live with it.
