As we embark on the journey through June, a month dedicated to celebrating our youth, we also pause to reflect on the evolving narratives surrounding womanhood. June holds significance in South Africa as the month of Youth, yet it also marks National Old Maids' Day, observed on June 4th. While the joy of motherhood is undeniable, it's crucial to acknowledge that the path to fulfilment varies for each woman, whether by choice or circumstance. The notion of being an "old maid" was once laden with derogatory connotations, implying a woman's worth solely through marital or maternal status. Thankfully, societal perspectives have evolved, recognising that a woman's value transcends traditional roles. This week, we honour those who have chosen to prioritize self-discovery and personal growth. The PFFSA envisions a South Africa where every woman has access to comprehensive healthcare, empowering her to make informed decisions about her well-being. Let us embrace this month with a spirit of self-empowerment and resilience, encouraging our youth to reject societal norms that seek to confine and define us. Together, let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, embracing the diversity of women's experiences. We're excited to share with you the enriching opportunities lined up this week!
