There is one ‘F’ word that is not said enough rather than the other one. Many men and women hesitate to call themselves ‘feminists’ or rather feel ashamed to associate themselves with the word. After Emma Watson made her empowering #HeForShe speech at United Nations Headquarters, New York in 2014, the trends have started to change.
The #HeForShe invites men to take part in the conversation for gender equality and talk about gender issues faced by both parties. On this Women’s Day, Pakistani celebrities – men and women, have shared inspiring and empowering messages for women all over the world to encourage them and make them feel that they aren’t lesser than anyone.
Following are the celebrities who participated in this campaign:
