Femininity-womanliness-is forging ahead in women's writing. Neglect, cruelty and thoughtlessness on the part of men inflict pain and suffering on women, and bestialize the former. Yet women's feelings do not become belligerent. Owing to their inherent femininity, their feelings, sentiments and behavioural patterns are dignified and tolerant. Womanliness is the basic feature of the fair sex. The mien of women is dignity, decorum, forbearance and gentility. This does not mean that femininity does not raise complaints or stand against hatred. Women could, in fact, be the hardest fighters too for their human rights.
