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.
“Culture does not make people. People make culture. If it is true that the full humanity of women is not our culture, then we can and must make it our culture.”
