For the purpose of this contest, I will use the tips given by the community as guideline;

The Advantages of Gender Equality and What it Entails

I understand gender equality to be all-round equal rights between male and female. Equal rights in terms of being fair with opportunities, responsibilities, discipline, freedom of speech, protection, decision making, education, morals and values.

When these are being considered in the society, there will be peace, harmony and each gender will know how to use their strength without feeling cheated.

Apart from Women, is Gender Equality Crucial for all People?

I would say YES! this is applicable to everyone not just women. The fact that women always tend to voice out their pains doesn't mean the other gender do not also experience inequality. It is best to balance everything and share equal rights where/ when necessary for both genders be it in relationships, workplace or household responsibilities.

My Thoughts on Gender Equality, Specifically Concerning the Circumstances in my Country

Since each gender has their advantages and disadvantages, it is necessary to look into those areas of life and balance everything. For example; men are blessed with strength to do hard labor year-to-year and doesn't get affected with biological clock which is their advantage but that shouldn't be the reason why women should be shot down when the opportunity comes for work. Most companies tend to ask women this same question during interview; "what will happen to the company during your pregnancy period?". Because of these natural circumstances, there is no equal access to job.

In this present generation, I am really impressed with the way gender equality is being handled in my country. Both genders have access to many things now and Government are doing their best to get every gender involved.

How to Educate Children to Understand this Issue of Gender Equality

Children are growing to adapt to what is happening in the world. As parents, leading by example is the first step to make them understand. This should begin from your home, make your male and female children understand that they have equal rights to things be it career, education and freedom.

When it comes to protection and provision, channel same energy to both. Here, they will understand the power of equality and grow properly with that positive value.
