In such a society, the human rights of men and women are equally respected. Women who desire an active role in society may participate in activities of their own choosing, while men could enjoy a fulfilling home and community life. A gender-equal society is a society built by men and women as equal partners. The realization of a truly affluent society is dependent on the establishment of a social framework that allows individuals to choose various lifestyles regardless of their gender, and without being bound by such rigid, stereotyped gender roles that assume that child rearing and nursing are exclusively women's duties, while men are the workers, tax-payers and pension renderers who support the nation. In reality, however, although gender equality has more or less been achieved in Japan as far as laws and legislations are concerned, women's participation in the policy- and decision-making processes remains insufficient, and women still have few opportunities to realize their full potential. The traditional tendency to view men's participation in housework and child-rearing as unmanly and the heavy burden of housework, child care and nursing that is still placed on women testify to the fact that Japan is lagging behind other countries in terms of gender equality. We, each and every one of us, need to rethink our prejudiced notions of gender-based roles, so that we may realize a society where men and women can participate together in politics, at the workplace and at home, and lead exciting and fulfilling lives.

A socially constructed characters such as norms, roles, behaviors, expressions, relationships, and identities of girls, women, boys, men, and gender diverse people. It Gender identity is not confined to a binary influences how people perceive (girl/woman, boy/man) nor is it static; it exists along a themselves and each other, how continuum and can be changed over the time. they act and interact, and the Gender roles in some distribution of power and resources societies are more rigid than in others. in society. There is considerable diversity in how individuals and groups understand, experience and express gender through the roles they take on, the expectations placed on them, relations with others and the complex ways that gender is institutionalized in WHAT IS SOCIETY? Is a grouping of individuals, which is characterized by common interest and may have distinctive culture and institutions. A "society" may refer to a particular ethnic group, such as the Nuer, to a nation state, such as Switzerland, or to a broader cultural group, such as Western society. An organized group of people associated together for religious, benevolent, cultural, scientific, political, patriotic, or other purposes may also be considered a society. NUER – A PASTORAL PEOPLE DEFINITION OF SEX Usually categorized as female or male but there is variation in the biological attributes that comprise sex and how those attributes are expressed. Refers to a set of biological attributes in humans and animals. It is primarily associated with physical and physiological features including chromosomes, gene expression, hormone levels and function, and reproductive /sexual anatomy. WHAT IS THE ROLE OF GENDER IN SOCIETY? Gender roles in society means how we're expected to act, speak, dress, groom, and conduct ourselves based upon our assigned sex. For example, girls and women are generally expected to dress in typically feminine ways and be polite, accommodating, and nurturing. They can also change in the same society over time. WHY IS GENDER AWARENESS IMPORTANT IN OUR SOCIETY TODAY? Gender awareness raising plays an important role in informing women and men about gender equality, the benefits of a more gender-equal society and the consequences of gender inequality. Gender awareness raising intends to change attitudes, behaviors and beliefs that reinforce inequalities between women and men. WHO GAVE THE CONCEPT OF EQUALITY? Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679), Moral and Political Philosopher (1651 Leviathan Book), postulated that in their natural condition, individuals possess equal rights, because over time they have the same capacity to do each other harm. John Locke, Father of Liberalism, (1632–1704), Greatest Philosopher in Europe (1690), Fundamental Natural Rights are "life, liberty, and property", argued that all human beings have the same natural right to both (self- ownership and freedom). WHAT ARE THE INEQUALITIES IN SOCIETY? Social inequality is an area within sociology that focuses on the distribution of goods and burdens in society. The goods can be, for example, income, education, employment or parental leave, while examples of burdens are substance abuse, criminality, unemployment and marginalization. WHAT IS ANOTHER WORD FOR GENDER INEQUALITY? a. Gender Bias b. Gender Differences c. Gender Discrimination d. Gender Disparity. e. Gender Imbalance f. Ender Inequity CONCLUSION ‘NO, WOMAN is not our brother; through indolence and deceit we have made of her a being apart, unknown, having no weapon other than her sex, which not only means constant warfare but unfair warfare – adoring or hating, but never a straight friend,– the defiant gestures of the eternal little slave.’ Many men would still subscribe to these words, many think that there will always be ‘strife and dispute’, as Montaigne put it, and that fraternity will never be possible. The fact is that today neither men nor women are satisfied with each other. But the question is to know whether there is an original curse that condemns them to rend each other or whether the conflicts in which they are opposed merely mark a transitional moment NOTA BENE: ALL DATA GATHERED THROUGH GOOGLE SEARCH.
