Zakale, maudindo a abambo ndi amai m'banja, m'magulu ndi ndale amasiyana kwambiri. Nthawi zonse, amuna amagwira ntchito yolemetsa, mapindu, ndale. Azimayi anadzilera okha, ntchito zapakhomo, makonzedwe a moyo. Chifaniziro cha munthu monga wopatsa gawo komanso chithunzi cha mkazi monga mlonda wa khomo ndi ulusi wofiira m'mbiri yonse ya dziko. Chikhalidwe cha anthu ndi chakuti nthawi zonse anthu amatsutsana ndi anthu ndipo si onse omwe amakonda ntchito zomwe anthu amachititsa.
Kutchulidwa koyamba kwa mbiriyakale ya dziko yokhudza mkazi mu ndale, yomwe yapulumuka mpaka lero, imatanthawuza ku zaka za m'ma 1500 BC. Mkazi woyamba wolemba ndale anali mfumukazi ya ku Egypt Hatshepsut. Nthawi ya ulamuliro wa mfumukazi ikudziwika ndi chuma chambiri, chikhalidwe ndi chikhalidwe chosalephereka. Hatshepsut anamanga zipilala zambiri, m'dziko lonselo, ntchito yomanga inali kuyendetsedwa bwino, akachisi omwe anawonongedwa ndi ogonjetsawo anali kumangidwanso. Malingana ndi chipembedzo chakale cha Aigupto, wolamulira ndi Mulungu wakumwamba amene adatsikira padziko lapansi. Anthu Aigupto ankawona kuti munthu yekha ndiye wolamulira ndi boma. Chifukwa cha ichi, Hatshepsut ankayenera kuvala chovala cha amuna okha. Mkazi wofookayu adagwira ntchito yofunika kwambiri mu ndondomeko ya boma, koma chifukwa cha ichi anayenera kupereka moyo wake. Pambuyo pake, amayi omwe ali mtsogoleri wa dzikoli amakumana kawirikawiri - azimayi, azimayi, azimayi, aakazi.
Mkazi wa zaka makumi awiri mphambu zisanu ndi ziwiri, mosiyana ndi olamulira akale, safunikira kuchita khama kwambiri kuti athe kutenga nawo mbali mu ulamuliro wa boma. Ngati kalelo Mfumukazi Hatshepsut anabisa kubisala kwake, m'mayiko amasiku ano akazi nthawi zambiri ankakumana ndi azidindo, a mayankho, akuluakulu a nduna komanso a pulezidenti. Ngakhale kuti demokarasi ndikumenyera zofanana pakati pa ufulu ndi abambo, ndale zimakhala zovuta kwa akazi amakono. Akazi ambiri mu ndale amachititsa kudana. Choncho, oimira zachiwerewere amayenera kuchita khama kwambiri kuti atsimikizire kuti ali ndi luso komanso luso lawo.
Mkazi woyamba kuti atsogolere Pulezidenti anali Sirimavo Bandaranaike. Atapambana chisankho mu 1960 pachilumba cha Sri Lanka, Sirimavo adathandizidwa ndi amayi ambiri. Pazaka za ulamuliro wa Bandaranaike, kusintha kwakukulu kwa zachuma ndi zachuma kunkachitika m'dzikoli. Mkazi uyu wandale analamulira maulendo angapo ndipo potsiriza anachoka pantchito mu 2000 ali ndi zaka 84.
Mkazi woyamba kuti atenge utsogoleri, Estela Martinez wa Perron, adapambana chisankho mu 1974 ku Argentina. Kugonjetsedwa kwa Estela kunakhala ngati "kuwala kobiriwira" kwa amayi ambiri omwe akufuna kutenga nawo mbali pa ndale za dziko lawo. Atamutsatira iye mu 1980, utsogoleri wa pulezidenti unatengedwa ndi Wigdis Finnbogadottir, yemwe adalandira voti yoyenera mu chisankho ku Iceland. Kuchokera apo, kusintha kwa ndale kwachitika m'mayiko ambiri, ndipo tsopano akazi amakhala ndi mipando khumi ndi iwiri mu zipangizo za boma m'mayiko ambiri amakono. Akazi otchuka kwambiri mu ndale za nthawi yathu ndi Margaret Thatcher, Indira Gandhi, Angela Merkel, Condoleezza Rice.
Azimayi amakono azandale amamatira chithunzi cha "Iron Lady". Iwo samatsutsa ubwenzi wawo ndi kukongola, koma amayamba kufotokoza maluso awo ofunika.
Kodi ndizoyenera kuti mkazi athe kutenga nawo mbali mu ndale za boma? Kodi amayi ndi mphamvu zimagwirizana? Mpaka pano, palibe mayankho osayenerera ku mafunso ovuta awa. Koma ngati mkazi asankha yekha ntchitoyi, ndiye kuti akhale wokonzeka kukanidwa, ndi kusakhulupirika, ndi ntchito yaikulu. Kuonjezerapo, lamulo lililonse la amayi sayenera kuiwala cholinga chachikulu cha amai - kukhala mkazi wachikondi ndi amayi.
