Artist Illustrates Funny Comics About Women's Daily Challenges, And Here Are 21 Of The Most Relatable Ones
There are so many things that women have to deal with every single day.
From managing a household to holding down a job (or sometimes both), women have a lot on their plates. And yet, we soldier on.
Because we're strong and capable, we know that ultimately, it's all worth it. We do it for our families, our friends, and ourselves.
Women, young and old, face different struggles every day. But remember, you're not alone in facing them.
Although we are unique individuals with our own roles to play in this world, the challenges we encounter are often the same. This is proven by many women, including an illustrator named Akshara Ashok.
Ashok is a Chennaiite woman in her 20s who runs Happy Fluff Comics. Her work focuses on the daily challenges women face, including physical, mental, and emotional ones.
Since her content is so relatable, she has gained many fans on her social media pages, primarily Millennials and Zoomers. Her Instagram alone has 228K followers as of this writing.
She started her account in 2017, and it has been growing ever since. The artist noticed that girls' issues were a popular topic, so she focused on that.

Women are strong.
We're able to do a million things at once and juggle a thousand balls in the air. But sometimes, it's hard.
It's hard when we're constantly told that we need to be thinner, prettier, and more put together. It's hard when society tells us that our worth is based on our looks instead of our brains or our hearts.
It's hard when we're criticized for just trying to exist in this world as ourselves. But we persist.
We persist because, despite everything, we know that we are powerful, valuable, and worthy of love and respect—not just from others but from ourselves too. So let's keep going, strong women!
