Despite the vast improvements during these 50 years, we are still far away from achieving gender equality all around the world and that is my personal perspective.
We still have some issues about learning how to be a great society, how to not interfere in others life and other people’s decisions and how to behave properly with a woman.
In my country, most of the old generation of males have a very bad attitude towards females, and they do not perceive them as a wife’s or even girlfriends. They still think that woman’s only place is in the kitchen and this way of thinking has a very bad consequences at the end. Even though in many countries’ things has changed towards woman and their rights, it’s still imbalance between man and woman so we can’t really claim that we have achieved gender equality.
For example, we have faced an issue like in a job, when male and female are in working the same position male still gets paid more than a woman and that makes societies question “how is this action fair?” we can bump into an unfair situation in our lives but if we have a chance to change the world for the better, why no one is doing that? That’s the problem, woman in 21st century have a right to study and drive a car and people really think that we should be pleased by that and be happy that we have those rights? When in reality, it’s a bare minimum and basic human right to be able to study and have some knowledge to then later get a work and make a living.
So, to sum this all up, I think that even some changes have been made, we are still far from gender equality, and we must do far more to be as equal as possible with each other on every level.
