This document discusses gender inequality, defining it as the unequal treatment or perceptions of individuals based on their gender due to socially constructed differences in gender roles. It notes that gender inequality, also known as sexism, is the belief that one gender is superior to the other due to psychological, behavioral or intellectual differences. Some statistics presented show that women make up 55% of the labor force but only 39% of leadership roles, are more likely to be unemployed, and see their earnings significantly drop after having a child while men's earnings do not. The document proposes solutions like sharing household and childcare duties equally between men and women to help abolish gender discrimination.
