Gender has nowadays become one of the major ways to classify population in societies.
Much as it may look natural, there is more into it than the sexual divide that exists
between men and women. There is a big imbalance in many aspects when it comes to
men and women that has been created not by nature but by social constructions;
unfortunately the tilt has in many cases been against women. Statisticians – whether from
the World Bank, national governments or locally-based NGOs use this classification in
order to highlight the extent to which the sexual divide one belongs to can be
advantageous or disadvantageous in relation to access to resources, division of labour,
participation in politics, and so on. As most of us are aware, the female gender has been
disadvantaged in most aspects. However, women have decided to organize and address
the situation. They have now realized that they have been victims of unjust socio-political
systems and that there has to be a fight back. |
