Women in Myanmar

In some sectors of Myanmar society ,women have been somehow contradistinguished

conventionally ever since the beginning of the nation .These sectors include politics ,business
and religion most apparently .This is because of some misconceptions ,which are entrenched in
the hearts of the people and ought to be dealt with one step at a time.
To begin with ,some associations favour men against women ,that is women are oftentimes
discriminated just because of their gender ,which is saddening .In some business and politic
communities ,women are not entitled to be in high positions even though they are qualified
enough .Likewise ,segregation is also applied in some religions in our country .For instance
,women do not have access to some religious places that are regarded as holy .We can notice
some other ways of distinguishing men from women in most parts of the country.
The main reason for that partiality is the misconceptions embedded in our mindset that play
down the significance of female .Most people believe that women are weak as well as
vulnerable ,which has traditionally made women responsible for their household chores and
hinders them from working together with men .Furthermore ,some religions considered
women inauspicious although they do not know the reason .Hence ,those misconceptions are
the root of the case.
This misunderstanding of the ability of women needs to be ironed out so as to advance our
nation as a nation of gender equality ,gradually though not quickly .The first thing to do is try to
realise and rid ourselves of our illogical misconceptions .Then we have to accept the
potentiality of women .After that ,they should be allowed to play an important in the building
up of our nation .In this way ,their capability will be optimised .
All in all ,we all know that women are implicitly explicitly marginalised in most parts of our
country as a result of our misunderstanding ,and this somehow has some negative impacts on
the development of our mother country .Therefore ,We have to perceive their competence and
utilise it in order to enjoy the advantages of gender equality nationwide.
