Inspired by the film Poor Things, this work explores how society imposes norms on women and questions whether so-called “impropriety” is just a self-made shackle. It encourages women to break free from constraints, embrace both softness and strength, and express their true selves. Those who fear impropriety and suppress their identity are, in fact, the real “poor things.” True empowerment lies in embracing one’s own diversity.
