8 March International Women's Day is an international day defined by the United Nations every year. It is devoted to the development of women's political and social awareness on the basis of human rights and the celebration of their economic, political and social achievements. Gender roles and the difficulties these roles bring for women are always discussed. .With the change in culture, women left home and entered working life. While this situation provided her with an economic advantage, it also increased her burden in terms of responsibility. To what extent does the woman, who assumes the roles of mother, housewife, wife and businesswoman, receive support from men at this point?. It is the most common among couples. One of the problems experienced is the problem created by the belief that responsibilities at home and children are the only women's role.
While men are shown in a wide range of social roles and activities, women are limited to housework and family roles. Men are commonly seen as experts. While women are portrayed as subordinates and followers, men are generally portrayed as more active, assertive and influential than women. These are the most important forms of gender inequality.
At the same time, incidents of violence against women are increasing day by day. .The consequences of physical, sexual and psychological violence experienced by women are extremely worrying. We frequently encounter psychiatric disorders as a result of the stress experienced by women who are unsupported and exposed to violence. Depression, anxiety and somatization disorders are among the mental disorders we see most frequently.
Women's role in the family is very important. Due to its importance in the education and upbringing of the child, it will reveal problems that have been passed down through generations due to the effects of such disorders and violence on children. Happy women will raise happy and self-confident children and will make great contributions to the development and progress of society.
