Hello everyone,
Welcome to the last week of this season's engagement challenge. It has been a wonderful moment so far and I'm delighted to have complete participation in the program from week 1 to this very final week. Just like every other week, week number four also comes with an interesting topic and I will be giving my view about this very topic.

This week, the topic of discussion is the Role of the Various Genders. Firstly, I will like to take us on a ride as to what gender is all about. Before going into the questions below let's discuss the term briefly. Gender in a very simple term refers to sex I.e being a male or a female. The world is made of two species of beings that is the male and the female.

Aside from humans, we have also seen that the lower animals are made up of gender as well and this is what fosters recreation among them. For production to take place between animals both lower and higher animals both gender must come together. With that being said, let's dive into the questions.


Does gender play a role in our everyday life?


The answer to this question is yes, gender plays a very vital role in our everyday life. As I have stated earlier, the world, in general, is made up of two genders and these genders are responsible for recreation. Today, whatever we want to do, the male are been separated from the female. In schools, the punishment for male students differs from the punishment given to female students.

Aside from this, there is always a sort of preference given to the female gender because they are termed as the weaker vessel. You don't subject them to the same treatment. The treatment of the male gender is sometimes harsh whereas that of the female is not too harsh. In my country today, both gender join the armed forces but only the male is allowed to go to the battlefield.


How does the role or function in your country differ from gender to gender?


As I have stated earlier, here in my country the treatment given from gender to gender differs a lot. The female gender is treated with more care and respect whereas the male gender is treated with an iron hand. Here in my country, the male gender is always kept as the head of the family I.e the leader of a given family whereas the woman is always seen as a helpmate to the man.

I have said earlier that women are the weaker vessel and because of that, they are not subjected to some sort of difficulties or hardship. In my country, if there is an exercise which involves both genders, the female gender will be attended to first whereas the male gender will have to wait. The female gender is always given preference.

Recently, I attend a program that lasted for 3 days, it is for both gender. The female gender present in that program were given their separate room with water and everything inside whereas e make has no water and no electricity so we have to go out and get water and also pay to charge our devices. They woke us from sleep at 4:00 am but the female are been waked by 5:00 am.


Is it the same for other countries?


I don't have complete knowledge about the role of various gender in other countries but I believe it will be the same because from the very beginning God has always placed man as the head of the family and the woman as a helpmate to the man. I'm also certain that the way men are treated all over the world is the same because women can't be treated so harshly.

Women generally are given preferential treatment because of how special they are in every part of the world. I'm certain the role of women is the same all over the world.


What about Steemit?


In the case of steemit as a platform, everyone is treated equally, and there is no act of favourite given to either gender. Though, the woman gender seeks to also have their space such as the steem women club. This is a community where only women are entitled to make their posts there and also carry out their activities.

Though the steemit team allowed that because of the respect they have for women. Despite that, when the engagement challenge sets in, it was open and every other gender was also allowed to participate. Their topics were adjusted to allow both genders to fully participate in the contest as well.


Conclusion


Gender plays a very important role in our day-to-day lives. We all are either male or female and whichever we find ourselves, we have our various roles to play. In the family, the male gender acts as the head whereas the female acts as the helpmate. In our world today we see the female gender as the weaker vessel hence not much is given to them because they can not withstand much pressure hence we treat them like an egg.

You are perfectly right my brother. But I think women should be giving attentions or like opportunity to partake in some of the activities that we believe that is for men.
Some of the women are even brilliant then men.
Once again, thanks for sharing bro.
I wish you luck in the contest

You have shared a great piece with us about gender today, @simonnwigwe. The male gender is indeed subjected to doing more hard work in a family setting and/or handling the toughest tasks.

Let's take a look at the practices in some villages even during the modern days, a male child is often required to do the hard job at farms (nonmechanized farms) while the female would be left to do the minor shores back home.

Although, I am not generalizing my expression in the previous section because we have families that treat both genders equally but most family settings would allow a male child to do more, let's say 75%.

You are quite right, I have not seen gender favoritism on Steemit before, I believe all authors are treated equally, weighing the quality of content produced for appropriate support.

You have a good article written on this and I wish you the best in the contest.

Thank you so much sir for such a wonderful comment and contributions on this post. This really means a whole lot to me. Thanks for stopping by once again sir.

Cheers
friend, a pleasure to read your post, I support that in most countries, there is equality of sex, but always considering as it indicates the Woman as "the most Fragile vessel".
and it is very important that in all relationships, whether family, couple or work, teamwork is carried out, everyone supporting.
certainly in Steemit we do not find gender discrimination.
Good luck in the Contest. Cheers!!!

Some countries and culture really do have respect for women, treating them with such dignity that you almost sounded jealous.
But we also have a good number of countries with culture that strip women of their humanity, some are so deep that the women themselves do not know any better. They have no idea of a possibility of a better treatment because that is what they were born into...
• They are not entitled to any opinion.
• They can't go to school.
• Their fundamental human rights are violated.
• They can be married off to pay family debts.
• Used to to entertain visitors.
• trafficked for sexual exploitation
The list is almost endless...
Most culture in Nigeria have been amended to accommodate women.

Nowadays, the world has generated inclusion where men and women have the opportunity to perform the same activities, something that is very rewarding and productive. Great post.

Bro...

The female gender is treated with more care and respect whereas the male gender is treated with an iron hand.

This is serious mahn😂. Male with iron hands. Nevertheless it's the believe that men are physically and mentally ready for a lot. Men exhist as man of the house across the globe. And it's a fair partition of gender obligations. Nice entry sir.

Happy to see you swing by check on ma post too 😊

Hola amigo un gusto leerte, aunque en algunos países la mujer no ha logrado tener una buena inclusión debido a la cultura de cada país hay en otros en dónde la mujer se ha incluído en roles ocupados por hombres, si es cierto que son tratadas con menos dureza que a un hombre.

Suerte en el concurso🤗
