Unspoken reality "Woman"

What you see in the picture above is the Arabic word "woman" formed from pacifiers. I'm 27 years old. Even though, by age, I'm an adult woman, my culture's norms make me feel as if I'm still a child! I love travelling and I want to roam different countries and experience different cultures, but according, not to religious rules, because Islam doesn't ban women from travelling alone, but society's norms, it is not acceptable for a woman to travel alone... so I have to wait on other family members and their schedules to free up, to chaperon me If I felt like travelling.
Minor for life, that is how it feels like to be a woman from the GCC. 
Started this project from sketching the Arabic word, Woman, in Freestyle calligraphy.
