Is gender equality rational ?

So starting of with the blog which says gender equality on the top but don't talk about gender equality in real .


In this blog i really want to address this issue in a philosophical sense and this isn't going to be another blog which talk about women equality and they should have a fair share.
First we got to understand that what do we really mean when we talk about gender equality are we talking about the genders fare share or are we saying that every gender should be treated equally?


If we mean that all genders meaning (male and female) in general are equal that itself is an insult. Its so crazy to think equality means treating everybody the same that's injustice treating everybody the same that's injustice.
Equality is treating the same people the same or people in the same context the same and it also means that you may have to treat different people differently.


Like for example we have social structure that are different for male and female like we don't have the same toilet that doesn't mean we aren't treating them equally. Like the babies the mother the father everybody have different needs right? Whether we like it or not that's a fact.


If you study psychology there are modules in psychology called individual differences there are gender differences whether you like it or not these are correlation. How can you treat two different things exactly the same that's injustice that's oppression right ?.
But if we talk about fair share for everybody then it's right say that men or women should not be priortize over one another but in some aspect where there is really a need of some kind of ability.


On concluding note,
‌God made us equal in the sense that he gave 80 marks out of 100 in total to both male and female but he gave 8 marks on question 1 to male and 6 to female or vice versa making it an equal total of 80 to both.


when i say men and women aren't equal i didn't mean that men is greater over women or women to men cause they weren't meant to be.

Duty Bound To Uphold Constitution: Kerala Governor On Sabarimala Issue

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: 

Kerala Governor P Sathasivam on Friday said that the state government has upheld constitutional values and gender equality and embraced the values of secularism and pluralism in every walk of social life.

"It is worth mentioning that my government has stood for gender equality, social justice and the dignity of the toiling masses," the Governor said while reading his address in the Assembly.

"It has scaled further heights in ushering in an era of enlightenment by rekindling the lights of renaissance and inculcating a new sense of oneness in the minds of emerging generations," he said.

Also launching a broadside against the Centre, he pointed out that time and again it had been pointed out that the imbalance caused by the detrimental effects of unhealthy Centre-State relations in general and fiscal relations in particular had put Kerala at a great disadvantage in furthering the advances it has made in several sectors.

"So, my government seeks a total restructuring of the Centre-State relations, in such a way that it will enrich both the Centre and the State.

"It is rather unfortunate that the State has been 'penalised' for achievements it made in various fields... The State is at a loss to understand the criteria with which it is deprived of its rightful share in the amount earmarked for these sectors.

"Our gains should not be a reason for the losses that we currently have to bear," added the Governor.

On gender justice, Governor Sathasivam said the Supreme Court had ordered that preventing the entry of women in a particular age group to the Sabarimala temple was unconstitutional.

"My government is duty bound to implement the judgment and uphold our Constitution. The various events that followed underlines the urgent need to carry forward the progressive values of the renaissance movement," said Governor Sathasivam, himself a retired Chief Justice of the top court.

The present session of the Kerala Assembly will last nine days.News from NDTV India.

Gender Equality In Education?

Gender equality is a global priority for UNESCO and inextricably linked to its efforts to promote the right to education and support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through the Education 2030 Framework for Action, SDG 4 aims to ‘Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all’ and SDG 5 to ‘Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.’The Education 2030 agenda recognizes that gender equality requires an approach that ‘ensures that girls and boys, women and men not only gain access to and complete education cycles, but are empowered equally in and through education.’Large gender gaps exist in access, learning achievement and continuation in education in many settings, most often at the expense of girls, although in some regions boys are at a disadvantage.  Despite progress, more girls than boys still remain out of school - 16 million girls will never set foot in a classroom (UNESCO Institute for Statistics) - and women account for two thirds of the 750 million adults without basic literacy skills. 

Poverty, geographical isolation, minority status, disability, early marriage and pregnancy, gender-based violence, and traditional attitudes about the status and role of women, are among the many obstacles that stand in the way of women and girls fully exercising their right to participate in, complete and benefit from education.

For Every Parents....?

Gender equality, also known as sexual equality, is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making; and the state of valuing different behaviors, aspirations and needs equally, regardless of gender.Whether its boy or girl everyone has a right to take proper education.This Video is regarding initiative for gender equality.

Why Gender Equality Is Good For Everyone-Men Included?

The very serious question that arises in everyone's mind that why gender equality is important?Why it is needed? The solution of this question is well explained by Mr.MICHAEL KIMMEL. I think it is important to remember that he is talking about equality between people. This is not about who is better or who can get one over another, it is about fairness and making life better for all of us. There will always be examples that people can point to regarding how those who are currently being oppressed are actually better off than most. The reason people can quote these instances is precisely because they are the exception. Having an African-American president does not mean racism is not occurring in the USA, knowing a poor person who became a millionaire does not mean the system gives equal opportunity to all and the fact that a woman in Australia is on the Forbes Rich list, does not indicate that women are now equal. I remember doing the doctor riddle when I was at high school and none of us could figure it out, I am very excited to think that the next generation may not have the same issue that we have in this area. I hope that life can be about supporting each other to create a more equal life for all.

What Is Gender Equality?

Gender equality is achieved when women and men enjoy the same rights and opportunities across all sectors of society, including economic participation and decision-making, and when the different behaviours, aspirations and needs of women and men are equally valued and favoured.

The European Institute for Gender Equality has compiled an online Glossary of gender mainstreaming concepts and definitions, drawn from international and regional women’s human rights instruments, European Union and Council of Europe legislative and strategy documents.

The Council of Europe has also compiled a Gender Equality Glossary based on the definitions and terms of Council of Europe instruments and standards relating to gender equality and this is available online.

How Do We Measure Gender Equality?

Gender equality is measured by looking at the representation of men and of women in a range of roles.

The Central Statistics Office regularly publishes "Women and Men in Ireland", a compendium of key statistics which enable us to map progress achieved towards de facto gender equality in Ireland.

The European Union statistical office, Eurostat, publishes an overview of gender statistics for the European Union from fields such as education, the labour market, earnings and health, important for showing differences in the situations of women and men.

A number of international comparative gender equality indices also exist which offer a way to compare Ireland’s achievements with those of other countries.  Each index looks at a distinct list of parameters and the choice of parameters affects the outcome for each country.

European Institute for Gender Equality EU Gender Equality Index

The European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) EU Gender Equality Index provides an easily interpretable measure of gender equality in the EU across 6 key policy domains – work, money, knowledge, time, power and health, and two satellite domains (violence and intersecting inequalities).

United Nations Gender Inequality Index

The United Nations Gender Inequality Index is based on the premise that "all too often, women and girls are discriminated against in health, education and the labour market with negative repercussions for their freedom".  The UN GII is a measure based on these inequalities.

World Economic Forum Global Gender Gap Report

The Global Gender Gap Report, introduced by the World Economic Forum in 2006, is another framework for capturing the magnitude and scope of gender-based disparities which benchmarks national gender gaps on economic, political, education and health criteria.  This Index looks at economic participation and opportunity deviation; educational attainment deviation; health and survival deviation and political empowerment deviation.

Social Watch Gender Equity Index

Social Watch is a network comprised by national coalitions of civil society organizations and it too prepares an index. The Social Watch gender equality index is based on the gap between women and men in education, the economy and political empowerment.
