It is International Women's Day today, and people around the world are celebrating the strength and achievements of women. A woman who fights patriarchy every day. A woman who is stronger than she thinks. Social media is buzzing with Women's Day celebrations. Amid these celebrations, a video imagines what a day in life would look like without inventions created by women. While women have invented many important things, their contributions are often forgotten. The video offers a glimpse of how messy everyday life might have been without these inventions.
The video was shared on Instagram by a user identified as Neha Sinha. It begins with a text overlay that reads, “A day in his life without inventions by women.”
The clip starts with a man picking up lemons scattered on the floor because he has nothing to carry them in. This scene suggests that if Margaret E. Knight had not invented the flat-bottom paper bag machine, we might not have had convenient bags to carry groceries.
The video then shows the man using a strainer to separate tea leaves while pouring tea into a cup. Suddenly, a woman appears and takes away the strainer, implying that such convenience would not exist if Melitta Bentz had not invented the coffee filter.
Next, the man is seen washing dishes by hand, looking visibly tired. The scene highlights that many people today rely on dishwashers to avoid manual dishwashing. This segment refers to Josephine Cochrane, who invented the dishwasher.
In another scene, the man checks his phone and scratches his head, seemingly searching for a Wi-Fi connection. The clip points out that modern wireless communication might not exist without Hedy Lamarr, who patented frequency-hopping technology that later helped form the foundation of Wi-Fi.
The video also shows how communication would have been different without Marian Croak, who played a key role in developing Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). Further, it highlights that drivers might not have been able to clean their car windshields while driving if Mary Anderson had not invented the windshield wiper.
In another moment, the man is seen using paper maps instead of digital navigation, suggesting that modern GPS technology would not exist without Gladys West, whose work contributed to the development of GPS.
The video has impressed many social media users with its creative concept and has garnered nearly3 million viewsonline. One user wrote, ''Love this brilliant perspective! Such a powerful reminder!'' Another commented, ''What an amazing reel...so innovative and unique..loved it.''
