  Women's safety and its issues are discussed and discussed around the world. Nevertheless, each year the number of reports of sexual harassment increases dramatically. Men and boys, we show our masculinity by the way we treat our women. Colleagues, our wives, our sisters, our mothers. -Archbishop Desmond Tutu Over the past decade, women have gradually gained a higher level of employment.

Technology addictions, also commonly known as digital addictions or internet addictions, are often overlooked due to the acceptance that society has placed on using digital devices. Gaming has become more popular than ever before and is available not only on consoles and computers but also right on your phone. Every time an individual completes a level, beats a boss, kills an opponent, or unlocks a new player or level the individual receives a boost of dopamine, resulting in gaming-induced pleasure.  Some games are never-ending. Social media platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, and others are highly addictive, and YouTube can also be grouped into this category.  Every time an individual receives engagement via a “like,” “follow” or “comment” the individual’s brain releases feel-good neurotransmitters, ultimately resulting in wanting more engagement. While Gambling Disorder is a diagnostic addiction unto itself, it is important to recognize and trea...

"Cruelty towards Animals in India" All living things have the  right to live  on the earth, but sometimes we become  cruel towards animals.  We have to understand that Animals can't speak but they too have life. Mahatma Gandhi rightly said that “The greatness of the nation is judged by the way it treats its animal".

People are becoming greedy and killing them for their selfish purpose. Animal organization PETA work for animal welfare. This ...

  As it is commonly understood, fashion has become a lifestyle and phenomenon in society. Some community assumes that dresses people wear are essential to identify the characteristic of human even the strata of society. However, there are several arguments state that people should not be determined by the clothes that they wear. In my point of view, the outfit is not only the way to judgment as personality or behavior is a dominant factor to judge someone. These days, the characteristic of humans can be observed by the way people wear costumes because it is easy to notice what people like and interest in.

  Stress and anxiety during covid           Experiencing an infectious disease outbreak can cause fear, anxiety, and stress. Along with overwhelming uncertainty and new behavioral ‘norms’ (e.g., cloth face covering or mask wearing, physical distancing), the COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we meet our daily needs, how we socially interact, and whether, how, and where we work. Millions of workers have lost their jobs. Some workers have continued to report to a physical workplace, while others have transitioned to full-time telework, and for many, the demands of work have changed or intensified. The nature of each situation is unique, but undoubtedly some of these changes are contributing to increasing levels of economic insecurity and occupational stress.   An outbreak can affect mental health and psychosocial problems comparable to experiencing traumatic incidents. People can suffer increased feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, irritati...
