Description of article
Gender ideology—a collection of beliefs about the right order of society in terms
of the roles women and men should fill—is a key component that contributes to
gender disparity. We suggest that people's perceptions of gender disparities shape
gender ideology in major part. People frequently consider gender differences to be
reflections of predetermined biology, and men and women to be different 'kinds.'
We present research that suggests that thinking about gender differences from a
biological-essentialist perspective fosters a non-egalitarian gender ideology.
It can be easy to understand what gender equality and inequality mean based on
my experience or knowledge of it, but it will be better understood if you have
witnessed or experienced it yourself from other people, and you can think that
something is wrong with what is happening, and then it comes to your mind that or
that is what the word gender equality and inequality may want to convey that may
have been done to you or that you may have done to yourself.
