Gender Equality

Gender Equality

So today I want to come up to trending topic of modern days “Gender equality”. I might be wrong on this but I want to put forward an opinion. We all know the fact that our society has been historically dominant by men. In every part of the world, it was controlled by men. So yeah, I agree that those times was not the time of equality. but today it’s gradually changing. We see a lot of women getting into sports, politics and in pretty much everything that men are doing.

So, I want to say that “Shouldn’t we guys just accept the fact that women’s and women’s are different?”. People should focus more on oneself than talk about genders. I know women raising voice was the cause of change in mentality of people about women’s. But we have to realize the difference between us. It’s a fact that 90% men are always physically stronger than women. It’s fact that men can’t touch women without consent. It’s the fact that women can’t go out at night just like men. It’s fact that women’s football team can’t get the audience as men’s. I am not saying it cannot change but it will take a lot of time. But I am saying that women can do dancing, singing and modeling stuffs which they can just do better than sports and grab more attention from audience. I am not saying women should only sing. But they have to realize that, at some of the thing’s men are just better. Same goes for men as well. They have to accept that women’s are just better than men’s at some of the stuffs. I am not saying everyone is same. We also see some men who are great at dancing than women and some women who are just better boxer than men. But i am saying it in general there is the difference.

But what I would say is men’s and women’s are equal on intelligence. Intelligence really depends on individuals. If couples have to make decisions, they have to go for who is more intelligent rather than just men’s. Or they just have to discuss themselves for making the best decision possible.

I have seen a lot of young generations dominating girls and not accepting that women are more than who we think they are. Girls are also not accepting that we are different. They expect us to treat them like Queens. Some of them are always talking about how everything should be equal rather than accepting the facts. I don’t know what’s wrong with some of them. They always get offended even at small things. I think they just want to argue that men must treat them like queens. I think everything really depends on acceptance of differences between males and females and embracing it moving forward. People should focus more on developing themselves. As I said I might be wrong coz it’s just an opinion. If you can, you can change my mind.

8 thoughts on “Gender Equality

  1. Seems like op missed the point-gender equality/gender similarities.
    Just because they are not same, just because women in sports can’t gather much audience like men’s, can’t they move forward in sports(or whatever field they like) and should they accept the fact that they have limitations? If they had accepted the fact that they have limitation, there wouldn’t have been any women in tennis/football or any other game. They know that there is a difference in men and women and that is why there is a separate team only for women and are not mixed with men. If we think that way, there will be only women in dance,singing,cooking(like you said) and only men in other field.

    Gender equality doesn’t ask for women to be treated like queen, some women does but you can’t portray that to gender equality. Gender equality asks for both the son and daughter to be sent to school(not just the son), both the son and daughter to be sent to same school(not the private school for son and government school for daughter), not to limit the women in only cooking, not to marry their daughters on their age 20/21 and send their daughters away and afford the son to study abroad.

    Having said this, there are few women who would like to compete to men in every field even though they don’t have that skill and like to compete just to show that they are equal. However,you can not take that ratio and make a whole new definition of gender equality. Some women like to be treated like queen and I don’t like that either. I believe that if a woman like to be treated like a queen, she should treat the partner like a king. However, because of those women, i don’t think women should accept the fact and only be limited in the singing:dancing like you said.

  2. I fully agree that male and female are different biologically but that doesn’t necessarily mean that we shouldn’t get equal opportunities or yk face any discriminatory treatment. And when i talk about “Gender equality” i want to to pursue my passions without limitations based on gender expectations and this goes on for males too. so, while i agree that gender equality is progressing i don’t think that it has worked everywhere. there are always gonna be people who like you said take the advantage of certain topic of situation. Nonetheless i personally think that gender equality still hasn’t done its full job yet.

  3. There are different schools of thoughts on feminism. Liberal Feminism advocates for equal rights and opportunities within the existing societal structure. It seeks to address issues such as equal pay, and legal rights.

    Radical Feminism challenges the root causes of gender inequality, often critiquing fundamental structures of society. Radical feminists focus on issues like patriarchy and the ways it is present in various aspects of life.

    Socialist Feminism integrates feminist ideas with Marxist theory, emphasizing the role of economic structures in perpetuating gender inequality.

    Cultural feminism explores how cultural norms and language contribute to the construction of gender roles. They question fixed categories and challenge traditional notions of identity.

    Third World Feminism examines gender issues in the context of global inequality, acknowledging the diverse experiences of women worldwide.
    It’s important to note that these categories are not mutually exclusive, and individuals may draw from multiple feminist perspectives. Additionally, feminist thought is dynamic, evolving over time to address new challenges and perspectives.

    Feminist perspectives generally acknowledge that there are biological differences between men and women but emphasize that these differences should not be a basis for social, political, or economic inequality. While there isn’t a specific school of feminism that denies biological differences, various feminist perspectives may differ in the weight they give to biological factors versus sociocultural influences in shaping gender roles and norms.

    The emphasis is often on challenging the use of biological differences as a justification for unequal treatment and advocating for equal opportunities and rights regardless of these.

  4. People see some of these arguments as “checkmate!” point.

    Of course we are different and there might be natural inclination toward some thing. But there shouldn’t be structure (of system or/and of mentality) that assumes someone is incompetent to do a job just because they are certain gender. Like say a guy really likes helping people, he is great at understanding people, Do you think there should be social and structural boundaries that makes him much harder to succeed as a male nurse?

    Why is it wrong when women want to do sports or be involved in politics? Sports, there is separate division for women. Politics, Women are there just so they could say “We have female representatives.”

    It is called gender equality not gender similarity. Point is not that we see all as same, point is we see all as equal. Point is that we should see people based on competency not whatever is down there in their pants. Main goal with gender equality is to remove these biases that we have against women (and men in many circumstances).

    Also, I will point out that males can be much better dancers than female except some few genres. Most women are better at dancing simply because they do it more. Same with singing and modeling.

  5. Gender equality has worked so much that it wrapped itself around and is now affecting men. I would say gender equality has reached the peak now and maybe it’s time to forget about it and let stuff run its course.

  6. two region in which men and women are different, cultural and biological, and if cultural differences is minimized, biological differences is maximized….on average men are interested in things and women are more interested in people…society ma j role cha afno tehi role khelyo bhane yo lafda topic ma kurai garnu pardaina hola..
