Gender Equality

Gender inequality has presented in history for a very, very long time, since the dark age. We have unconsciously established the "role" for men and women. Throughout time, it sinks deeper and deeper into our minds, and women are seen as inferior to men, thus, creating gender inequality.

Gender inequality have created more men than women. People have done cruel things because their beliefs of men are superior than women. For example: In China, some parents would kill their infants if they are girls.

Pink: More female than male

Blue: More male than female

Green: Male equals female

The gender inequality index shows the inequality between gender in different countries. Gender inequality takes away women's rights. People did not see women as equal as men. They did not have rights, until they went on protests. The most famous would be the day women in Iceland went on strike. On October 24 1975, 90% of Iceland's women refused to work, cook or look after children. After this day, women won the rights, the rights they deserved. Iceland is now one of the most gender equalled countries in the world. 

What can we do with gender inequality? the UN has started project 50-50 by 30, a project to equal out male and female in the world by 2030. Women can stand up against men now. This is the 21st century. Our laws and rules apply to both men and women. Women have the rights of men. Women promote feminism, and they are receiving support from governments and many organizations. A world where equality reigns will always be perfect.
