This change in society opens the door for women to excel at the same pace as men, however, men continue to insist on enforcing outdated gender roles.…

Women play a big role in life. Women are bright, smart, beautiful, pure, and strong. “This is a man’s world, but it would be nothing without a woman or a girl” (Brown James). This song speaks so much about society, that yes, men have always been superior, but nothing would be the same without a woman or a girl. Back in the day, women were perceived as objects that were used to please men in any way possible. This had to come to an end and that is when women came together to fight for their rights. Their right to vote and to have a position in society. To fight in the right way, to have their voices heard. The way that women fought were nothing but filled with peace and love. Why are woman treated differently? When they are important.…
All men are created equal; this includes women as well. Over a decade of years, women certainly have come a long way to gain the same kind of equal equality as men, such as being able to vote and being able to join the armed forces and fight alongside men. As growing up I was always told that playing dolls is a girl’s toy and playing a car is a boy’s toy. In my cultural, I was taught that girl couldn’t work in a male job, and I was taught to do housework while the men did nothing around the house. In my house/culture, the men are the provider while the women in my opinion are the servant in which caters to every male in the household. If people were to think about combat in the army many just picture a male behind the military ACU (advanced…

The status of women in the U.S. today has improved a lot. According to The State of Women in America, “women made up only about one-third of the workforce in 1969, women today make up almost half of all workers in the United States. Women are also stepping up to lead the country; a record number of women ran for public office in 2012, and a record-high percentage of women are serving in Congress.” Women today feel more apart, rather than an outcast. It is also clear to see that America is going to start to see changes with leaders of the country. Women are also paid equally to men according to their qualifications for the nature of the job.…
One might say that men and women in this country are equal. Although society has come a long way in granting gender equality double standards still exist. These double standards regarding the different genders weigh down our society and negatively affect our nation's course of equality and freedom. Both men and women are an essential part of society with an equal capability for success. Unfortunately due to stereotypes many are held back from reaching their potential.…
Women everyday are getting persecuted for rights we have taken for granted. Gender equality should be practiced around the world because women are also humans and should have equal rights as men. Women should also have the capability to provide for their family and women are naturally more talented than men in certain occupation. It is a fact that their work is not appreciated as must as men’s, although they have to sacrifice a lot for their family and career. Women should be treated equal just like men. Men are neither perfect nor better and should not be trusted with all the important positions and jobs. Women should be given the opportunity to participate in politics and to provide for their family. History tells us that in ancient times women used to possess massive power and several had impenetrable courage under difficult circumstances. Many women have ruled over vast empires successfully and effectively. Queen Elizabeth for example had led England to defeating the Spanish Armada in 1588. (Briscoe, Alexandra) Queen Hatshepsut, female pharaoh of Egypt, had managed to maintain peace and reestablish the trade networks. (Glueck, Grace)…
Nowadays, capabilities of women cannot be hindered. Men should honor their hard work and achievements that had taken almost two centuries to achieve and a life time to be granted the acceptance of men. They are starting to beat men in terms of leadership; an evidence is those female presidents from other countries. Women who have…
Empowerment is multifaceted, multidimensional & multilayered concept. Women empowerment could be seen as a process in which women gain greater share of control over resources like material, knowledge information ideas; financial resources like money; control over decision making in home, community, society and nation and to gain power to empower herself. It does not mean to give them power to dominate others or use power to establish their superiority over others. In reality women empowerment meant to empower herself not to overpower men. It means to ingrain belief in her innate right to dignity and justice& her ability to fight against injustice and discrimination. This fight is often considered as a fight against men but in reality it is fight against tradition & attitude that are instilled in patriarchal society.…

Entire nations, businesses, communities, and groups can benefit from the implementation of programs and policies that adopt the notion of women empowerment.[2] Empowerment is one of the main procedural concerns when addressing human rights and development. The Human Development and Capabilities Approach, The Millennium Development Goals, and other credible approaches/goals point to empowerment and participation as a necessary step if a country is to overcome the obstacles associated with poverty and development.[3]…
