It is not only United States which face this kind of problem. Even other developed countries have still the orthodox attitude that women are inferior to men. New Zealand may be the first country giving women suffrage rights and maybe we have seen many women politicians enjoying the center stage, but still somewhere deep there is discrimination. People still have problem taking us equally seriously. And it is not only about New Zealand or US, but I have cousins in Australia and England and they also feel that opportunities and rewards are not equal.

This is 21st century and Women across the world are still lagging behind men in almost every society-be it developed and developing countries. We can find the gender gap even in income, political and social power in country such as United States. Yes, this is true that women’s social, economic and political positions have changed a lot but still they are receiving less of everything than men.

It is not the problem in United States, women are facing discrimination across the world. Till now, no any developed countries can claim that they have achieved gender equality in the society. In Egypt, women are still behind men if we talk about economic equality between men and women. Countries like Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Denmark and Finland are the only countries with smallest difference between the genders.
