Q1- Do you think the poem 'mirror' addresses the issue of gender inequality?how?support you answer with suitable reasons?

ear Student,
Given below is the answer to your question.
  • The poet depicts the image of a woman who is dependant on the mirror to assess herself.
  • However, this is a age old belief that has been handed down over generations and the assumption that woman is dependant on someone or something is imbibed by the world around.
  • But, with the passage of time, one comprehends that the role played by both men and women are equal and their significance in the society is irreplaceable.
  • It is the outlook to their duties that makes a difference and than often degrades them.
  • It is important that the society understands that in order to create a perfect equilibrium, both men and women are equal and gender equality is to be encouraged.
