The 2018 biopic On the Basis of Sex recounts the tale of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg some time

before she was designated to the Supreme Court. The film enlightened us from her graduate
school a long time to her first appearance under the steady gaze of a court, giving some
foundation to the ascent of this current ladies' privileges pioneer.
I believe that to completely understand the context as to why this is a goosebump-giving and
legendary is to get a gist of the movement of gender inequality. According from research, history
have opened our eyes to the reality that gender inequality and in societies, women have been and
still are oppressed. History matters in clarifying the distinctions in sexual orientation jobs noticed
today. Much of the published articles and studies delineates that distinctions in social standards
with respect to sex jobs arise because of explicit authentic circumstances yet will in general
endure even after the recorded conditions have changed. In this manner, even the removed past
influences sexual orientation standards today. Now – to answer the question given, If the Law
Differentiates Between People on the Basis of Sex, Then How Will Women and Men Ever
Become Equals? My answer is through change, passion, and action.
We have achieved much in recent history on the path to gender equality, and the movie is just
one of the major turnovers in story. The movie displayed a wonderful example of how change,
passion, and action contributed to the fight against inequality. The late Ruth Bader Ginsburg
even used change to prove a point, and to make a statement. Every generation has its own
approach to life and work. As understudies graduate into adulthood, every age conveys with it an
essential focal point which educates how they vote, what they purchase, and why they accept and
act the way they do. Generation differences have shaped us, developed our ways of life and
thinking, and our perception of the society and towards the society continues to improve. Now,
another characteristic I loved most about the Ginsburg family is their passion to fight for what
they believe in and how the burning passion they had reflected on their actions, making it a
powerful movement to change the society, one step at a time. Ruth Bader Ginsburg powered not
only by her excellence and knowledge, but also of her raging spirit and dedication to fight for
oppression and gender discrimination made her convince the U.S. Supreme Court, and the rest of
the world. I consider myself a living testimony of my answer. I believe that because of the
society I am living with today, the movement to reduce inequality in the community
continuously influences people and changing the cultural norms that encloses our capacities and
abilities just because of gender. Today, I have friends who do not think motherhood is the only
fulfillment a woman can feel, nor to dream of becoming a wife is the only path we can take.
Today, we see men who are not afraid to be emotional just to take care of their masculine image,
knowing that it is just how society framed men should be. But the fight does not stop here. We
continue to act; we continue to voice out and join the movement because there are still
individuals who are discriminated daily.
Change, passion, and action. These three words, for me, is what made the movie empowering,
and what powers the movement to fight gender discrimination until today. With the climate of
the era, our burning passion and dedication, our actions will reflect on the movement we are a
part of, and hopefully, see a future where everyone is presented the same opportunities, whatever
their gender may be.
