hello everyone, I am Arvin James Llagas, a grade 11 student.

I am here to give
emphasis to Gender Discrimination in Women

GENDER DISCRIMINATION IN WOMEN

These days, Gender discrimination is very evident, especially here in

the Philippines where everyone sees men and women as unequal. It became a matter to
most Filipino to the fact that it became the talk of the town. Most of the time,
people tend to see that men are more capable to do a lot of things than women. It
is the reason why Gender discrimination is very evident in the everyday life of
people.

In terms of gender, women tend to receive or treat this so-called gender

discrimination. It is because of the saying that women are weak and men can do a
lot of things than women. In fact, women are not weak because some of them are
independent and who tend to fight for their rights and what is right. Women and
children experience gender discrimination in different aspects. Some of the
experiences they had are restricted access to education, a lower standing in
society, less freedom to make decisions around their personal and family life, and
lower wages for the jobs and work they do. Women are treated unequally not just in
their homes or way but also in their work even though to be treated equally is a
human right.

In other countries, women cannot decide for themselves, especially if they

are married. They are also not allowed to work and just stay at home and be the
wife every man dreamed of. Women became slaves most of the time to the fact that
they are also being harassed just because they are WOMEN. They also experience
being disfavored in a lot of things.
My initial reaction to this is I was disappointed because all of us even boys
or girls are from a mother. A mother who brought us for 9 months and a mother who
gave birth to us. Women can also do a lot of things that men cannot do. It is to
give birth. Those things that people think women cannot do were skills that can be
learned. Women can learn after all. Women are still women even without men.
Women in general are capable of more things than we actually think. Although
women experience gender discrimination, they are strong emotionally and physically.
In this generation, women tend to see their worth wherein they are pursuing what
job they want and they can decide for themselves. They are working for themselves.
Some are studying to be a professional not to be house-wife material. We, as a man
and a people, should treat women right like our mother treats us and because it is
what is right. Women deserve all the love in the world. Our actions toward women
reflect about who we are as a husband because I believe in the saying that men of
quality respect women’s equality.
