Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities


Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities


Gender equality, also known as sex egender egalitarianismsexual equality or equality of the genders, refers to the view that men and women should receive equal treatment, and should not be discriminated against based on gender, unless there is a sound biological reason for different treatment. This is the objective of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which seeks to create equality in law and in social situations, such as in democratic activities and securing equal pay for equal work. 

Men and Women were Created Equal Men are not superior to women, they are equal in every way. Although it is true that society has stereotyped women into traditional roles, this preconceived notion, is totally false. Action to promote the concept of equality in our society needs to be taken. Women have been fighting for equality for many decades. As a result of this battle, some amazing transformations have taken place amongst the female gender. Women have become educated and over the last few decades have started to take active roles and their rightful place in society.  Equality has been a controversial issue ever since time began. Whether it be race, sex,
religion, it has always been an unsettled topic of concern. Equality between men and
women is often brought into society. I think men and women should be treated equal
from all perspectives. Gender is what makes women different from men, but does not
make women incapable of compiling valuable choices. Women and men have the ability to make decisions that will benefit all people in a fair way
