Yes what i have seen both are treated equally nowadays. There was time when society discriminate on basis of gender. But now time has changed. It was a tremendous waste of the world’s human potential. By denying women equal rights, we denied half the population a chance to live life at its fullest.
Political, economic and social equality for women has benefited all the world’s citizens. Together we have eradicated prejudice and work for equal rights and respect for all.Men and women are equal but with different purpose to serve. God made men the head of women why men were commanded to respect their wives.The problem of equality of men and women now is depend on the culture and tradition of a country. There are countries that women are already treated equally with men while the others do not have the same action.And for me there is no other reason why there are countries where in their women treated unequal to men and that is their tradition. And I believe when time goes by this will change because of modernisation.There are examples of gender inequality in both directions but probably more cases where its against women than men. One that people often talk about is the pay gap, this is one that often frustrates me because demanding equal pay is not the solution. There are logical reasons for the pay gap (it doesn't equal the current gap but for some gap yes) such as the fact that women are more likely to take extended maternity leave at great cost to an employer. Society now is at the stage where too many people demand everything to be equal when in fact things such as prices wages etc should be decided by market forces but we should just be acting to remove discrimination. We can only do this by furthering understanding and inclusivity.
