I truely and truely disagree with Kavitha Shankar on this account. It totally depends upon the situation in which a person is which you may not know. When one respects hrself it is for sure that the other respects it too.

Despite being adequately confident, they are still always misunderstood, misquoted and abused. The natutal tendency whould be to hit back.

Working women are not annoyingly overconfident. They are just confident and it has taken many years for women to gain this. In the society of male dominance women are trying to create their identity; and today if not all some are successful in this.

I dont agree with Kavitha jee(with due respect). You yourself is also a woman. I suppose you also know what u can do.Similarly the other knows where their strength is. So they are definately confident and not overconfidant.

Generalisations like these aren't correct.The problem is that "Nahusha" effect applies equally to men & women,so it isn't gender specific.In case of women,it gets exaggerated due to her 'gender' and the proportion of opposite working with her and reporting to her.They are in a dilemma,if they are very strict,it is attributed to 'inferiority complex',she wants to be a "man",but if they are of genteel disposition,it is attributed as a sign of weakness and 'womanly'like.So,either way,you get stereotyped!!!

Good debate Kavitha. Very heartening to see a woman take this up and voting for the loatter that too. Indeed women are becoming over confident as they forget traditional family values and use their new found financial freedom to posture aggressively. This was bound to happen given the suppression that they have faced over such a long time. And like everything else this too is a cycle and once women realise that their aggression is only breaking homes rather than build them, this thing will pass. For one moment also i am not advocating women not working, What i am saying is women are the housemakers and they should realise this and then only get into a working life. They have to balance both and once they do that, i am sure the man in their life will also help out if he isnt already !

Would say few are really but that cannot be taken as a general rule for all. Basically it stems for the fact that they had to manage all the things at one go they had to play all the roles in family mother,wife,sister,daughter and also work in the company at the same time ao aometimes it is bound to happen that they tend to get angry and arrogant more often than not. But would say few of them are as they get success easily and have their way and say in all decisions. Its more to do with the nature of the person.

Few women are overconfident as in the same manner few men are also overconfident, still i believe that we should not give them our attention as they are always looking for one's. these people are, we can say, have a lack of self and basic awareness, can say Tatva gyaan. But lets not give them our precious time and attention and do our work properly, Ignorance is the key to open their locked brains.. T&R

In my whole life I found those women are working are also overconfident, arrogant, and overambitious. Who cares about the respect?

The fact of the matter is that there are instances where working women do get overconfident & manage to cross well accepted boundaries of society & relationships. Salaried women at times take financial independence for freedom from accountability to spouse & parents. It is at these junctures that relationships become strained & audacity replaces manners. There are certain lines and boundaries which are woven into the Indian social fabric hence outright violations of codes of conduct are not accepted by society. So working women are most welcome to exercise independence but then as the old adage goes - "Independence comes with boundaries."
