Quote some examples from your day-to-day life, describing how women are subjected to discrimination
Answer:
- Boys and girls are brought up to believe that the main responsibility of women is household work and bringing up children.
- Women do all the work inside the house such as cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, tailoring, looking after the children, etc., and men do all the work outside the house. It is not that men cannot do such work, they simply think that it is for women to attend to.
- When these jobs are paid for, men are ready to take up such work. Most tailors, and cooks in hotels are men.
- In villages, women fetch water, collect fuel and work in the field.
