Gender Discrimination

-






 


Gender discrimination refers to denying any opportunity in field of education, employment and public rights on the basis of sex. Gender discrimination occurs in almost every part of our country. Rural areas are the focal point of gender discrimination. In our country, the inequality between men and women is deeply rooted due to the patriarchal norms. Here, girls are 2.5 times more likely to be out of school than boys. The literacy rate among males in India is 78.8% as compared to 59.3% in females. In population census 2011–2013, it was revealed that the sex ratio of India was 909 females per 1000 of males. Currently, it has skewed downwards, recording 900 females per 1000 of males in 2013–2015. These figures show the inferiority of women in field of education. Domestic work is considered as a natural responsibility of women. Covid-19 has worsened the situation of women in India leading to domestic violence and harassment. The plight of women has not ended since the very existence of Indian civilization. Therefore, it is important to spread awareness in the society so as to end gender discrimination from the society as soon as possible.

Some people develop a shopping addiction as a means of boosting their self-esteem, albeit this isn't always beneficial.
