Do you think that men and woman are treated equally in society?
if not , what are the ways you suggest to promote equality among society ?
Government are still implementing laws and rules about man and woman treating equally but as you can see in our society this laws and rules people are not following they still treated man and women not equal. They still think man are the superior of them all but as an individual we can change the perspective of the society about gender  if we will start within ourselves if we will respect and understand  in this world we have different responsibility, skills and ability.

Men and women in this world work harmoniously for the sake of living. Jobs were made for them to apply and act on. But are these opportunities gives an equal treatment to both men and women? I think that yes, but not all the time, and not anywhere. I have been carefully noticed that specifications for a particular job were based on ability and skills, not on the gender anymore. But there will alsways be an exception to everything. For example, they arelooking for sales lady, and a waiter. Then, automatically, what they are looking are women and men respectively. Moreover, as compare to the former years, gender equality is in primary concern right now, especially that many are getting aware with it, and fight for it.

I am a woman and i can say in other thing women and men must be equal but in the terms of work like carpenter co struction its only for men and theres also work that only women can do.

I can't agree with you. I think, there is no such thing as "work only for some gender". I think, anyone should be able to do anything he or she wants. However, it includes such cases when a woman wants to be a housewife: some feminists denies this right for women, strangely. Some women want to pursue a career, but some want to take care of the family, and everyone should get what they want.

One might object that there are meaningful differences between males and females, and these in turn are the source of gender inequality. Some believe that equality is the wrong word to use, because males and females can’t be equal if they are different.

But when feminists refer to gender equality, we are not arguing that males and females are identical or indistinguishable on all behaviour, preferences and abilities. Nor does it mean all gender differences must be eliminated, or that we must have equal gender representation in every field.

IF women wants GENDER EQUALITY we should have out first the old traditions.

this is the thing that they do want to exist as always, they want man to give sit to them,
They want not to be hurt physically but they do it more to guys.

Honestly, women are more favored by our society because they are considered to be fragile and weaker than men. When it comes to jobs, employers and companies only hires men for hard and difficult jobs and mostly hire women for office works. However, there are women who excels in men's field and vice versa.

There are some fields out there, in which the females usually perform better than men. Women are usually preferred for jobs such as receptionists and personal assistants. Certain sectors such as fashion designing, child-care services, hospitality and teaching are heavily dominated by women.

No, men and women don't need to try being equal. They are different in many ways and that is great! We have to remember that God gave us (men and women) different roles in life.
Several centuries ago women weren't treated the right way. Girls couldn't go to school, work and etc. They were born to be mothers and that's it. And that wasn't really fair.
But nowadays everything has changed. Both men and women have a chance to work, have a career and have a normal life. So I do not see the need for women to achieve their independence if we already have all the rights that we need.

Women are supposed to be treated with much care in the society. It's not because they are physically weaker than men but because they are more prone to be attacked instead of men.

But yes with the privileges women should have equal rights with men too.

Gender equality, also known as sexual equality, is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making; and the state of valuing different behaviors, aspirations and needs equally, regardless of gender.

Gender equality, equality between men and women, entails the concept that all human beings, both men and women, are free to develop their personal abilities and make choices without the limitations set by stereotypes, rigid gender roles and prejudices. Gender equality means that the different behaviour, aspirations and needs of women and men are considered, valued and favoured equally. It does not mean that women and men have to become the same, but that their rights, responsibilities and opportunities will not depend on whether they are born male or female. Gender equity means fairness of treatment for women and men, according to their respective needs. This may include equal treatment or treatment that is different but which is considered equivalent in terms of rights, benefits, obligations

the problem with this issue is that, today too many people have conflated equality of OUTCOME with equality of OPPORTUNITY...the reasons for the gender wage gap (and most other gender equality "problems") have much more to do with nature and the choices made by women as opposed to restrictions imposed by the "patriarchy"...for instance, the five highest paying careers are populated (overwhelmingly) by men...conversely, the five lowest paying careers are populated mainly by women...couple that with the fact that men don't get pregnant...and, therefore are less likely to use up training resources only to retire early to raise kids...put it this way...if the gender wage gap were real, companies would hire mostly women to save money...as with most other issues that are over-simplified for the sake of pissing people off to the point of voting, this issue has been....well, over-simplified

gender equality,also knowns sexual equality, is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender,including economic participation and decision-making and the state of valuing different behaviors, aspirations and needs equaly,regardless of gender.Gender equality is the goal, while gender neutrality and gender equity are practices and ways  of thinking that helf in achieving the goal.Gender parity,which is used to measure gender balance in a given situation,can aid in achieving gender equality but is not the goal in and of itself.Gender equality is more then equal representation,it is strongly tied to womens rights,and often requires policy changes. As of 2017,the global movement for gender equality has not incorporated the proposition of genders besides women and men, or gender identities outside of the gender binary.

As we know today, a lot of woman can also do what the man do.  Maybe, there are equal about woman and man. So,  woman also treated nicely in society. 

Woman can do 90% of the things that men do. But why concentrate so much on it? Let the task allocation be decided on merit. There are somethings that only the women can do, such as giving birth. Have you ever seen a man saying that he wants to give birth?

But that depends on technology, not on any change on biology that made women nowadays anything different than what women were for the last thousands of years. A crane can lift 100 tons with the push of a button, a car can run at 300 km/h at a push of a button... the strongest man can't even lift 0.5 ton and the fastest can't run even at 50 km/h.
On cognitive grounds there appears to have no much difference.
But then again, usually when we listen to "equality crap" we're talking about management... management is 1% or less of the workforce, a factory needs a 1000 workers and 1 manager, not 1000 managers and 1 worker. You don't see many women applying to construction work.

Equality is actually the worse thing that can happen to women. You're not giving them anything, you're taking.
We can't change biology, women need special attentions men doesn't, therefore a set of jobs were considered as "womanly" to prevent men from push them out of employment and towards a dependency life. So when you start talking about "equality", you're actually giving even more buffer and rights to men.
Equality is like as if you make all sports competitions mix-gender now... and we will never see a woman in a podium again!

In our society man and woman are not treated equally they think that men are superior among woman. There are many aspects that tgey are not treated equally the believe that man are good when it comes to leadership, decision making, performance and other hard activities or job. That's why government make an action by making laws empowering the rights of women and to achieve same opportunity.

They will never be treated equally

Totally agree. Equality doens't exist in many country. You can see it in just observing how both parties behave. Woman tend to be higher than the man. For example when a Woman kiss a man in public it is romantic but when a man kiss a woman in public they called him pervert. See? same scenario but different opinion. But in society equality doesn't exist anymore.

I believe that when it comes to rights as humans , men and women should be equal. We should all be treated equal in all aspects in our society. People may think that men are stronger but I believe that there are also things that only women can do. There should be a gender equality in our community.

Men and woman should have the equal human rights but that doesn't exist in some country. Some woman is above in men like they should have the same rights but they want to be treat like a Queen. Some men abuse their rights and harass woman. There is a lot of reasons in different countries why gender equality doesn't exist.
