Gender Issues
The topic of gender issues has been very controversial since forever. Many argue about living in a male dominant society, while others believe that the topic is getting out of hand and is relatively nonexistent. In my opinion gender issues will always be existent, no matter the society that you live in. While there exist some societies that gender issues are more apparent than in others, the rights concerning women and men and their rights, is very prominent.
The Dominican Republic is one of many examples where the society is male dominant. Not so long ago, women were expected to stay at home and be basically “house wives,” as generations pass, women are expected to study and later on work. Although older generations still have expectations on women, the younger ones are trying to break the stereotypical barriers that exist.
In my point of view, the issue concerning gender rights is very important in the world. In my life, I have met many people that believe that women are less significant than men, less intelligent and less capable. The problem relies in our education of men in the world. We must educate young boys to learn that a women can be just as capable as a men and vice versa. There must be no barriers concerning what a man can do and what a woman can do. Also, there must be no barriers on what a woman can wear and what a man wear. Some believe because a woman is wearing short shorts she must be “asking for it,” when it is most likely wears them because she likes how she looks.
Gender issues are an issue on our society and we must educate generations in order to break the barriers in distinct genders.
