WOMEN'S POLITICAL, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL RIGHTS
Women and Equal Rights:In your observation, based on facts or experience, are there women in the world today that are still deprived of these political and social rights?
If so, on what ground and should they be emancipated, changed and be accorded all to the extent of the law that is prevalent in the western world including but not limited to: USA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, EUROPE?
If not? why?
Your answer is always respected regardless as to which side you choose, but if it so, please cite a legitimate reason why?
Note: I know there are a lot of women today that might want to exercise this equality in terms of all aspects that is accorded to the male counterparts. And not to exclude the fact that there are possibly some that would rather be in their position and don't ever want to change.
Thanks for all your participation, comment and contribution. I truly appreciate.
All genders are welcome.

It's still long way to go in women emancipations in economical and political rights. We can look the basic like;we still have to carry Man surname and women jobs like Child care is less valued/payed than 'Man job' so we still have long way to go in emancipation. Women does not need a man permission to seek for women Rights; we need to take our rights in our hands. On what ground women should be emancipated ? - On what ground any kind of discrimination in society is tolerable and to what extend? On what ground we know how to diferantiate right from wrong ? The way we are broth up makes effect on our beliefs -specially if women is treated as less equal to Man and "can't do" what man does ...so starting from birth learning about equality is important.
I would need a day or two to prepare the notes to accompany the topic
Enigma, thank you so much. Your observation is quite true. While I don't disagree with you at all on the fact that it is a long way to the point where we feel completely and evenly leveled with our male counterparts, I am more directing this topic to those women, (MALALA'S, i.e.) who wouldn't have a clue as to what the women of the Western world's role is in our society. It is more of a level of awareness then perhaps measure the need if they so aspire?
Noted: Love the last part. yes, even before the baby is born, there is no preconceive idea of her being a woman and therefore inferior to what she can and can't do that men can't. agree 100 percent. Thanks.
Besides being blocked.
Thanks again.
that is my ponit..
This equal rights thing does not pan out well with me. I cannot see why any woman would relinquish her upper hand for equality.
Thanks and regards to your beaut to her that so holds the reign will you?
OPEN CONSCIOUSNESS
of the male gender,
even to what God says about THE EQUALITY.
thought of as equals and we are pretty much there, in other countries it is considered custom that women aren't equal decision are made for them from the time they are born if these women have any indepedant thought they are killed or harmed in some kind of way this is why these women accept this treatment as custom but the world is changing and if history has taught us anything you cant keep a good one down these women will get fed up with someone else controlling there lives when they do decide to make a stand they will have the suport and help of women all over the world aside them.
the downside to this is when women make this stand you will be considered an unruley untrained zebels much like american women are considered but aleaset you would have taken back your god given right to live .
LEAH,
I'll say your a "zebel" because your rooting for the bad guys! You zebel you!

Isisjn, Thanks so much for your participation. I can't agree with you on this. If I take it literally by having to depend on the male genders to have given us these rights, then there would have been no bitter and almost thousand of years per man's existence spent for the recognition of these rights, let alone practice them. just on the representation and the women's right to vote is not even a as old as our very own constitution.
Now on the enhancement of these rights, I very doubt even stronger. Why? Generally by nature MEN, in capital letter is very domineering, which is alright to some extent. And it should be for the most part, but because of lack of compassion I will never expect men even today to give me that right. With due respect to most of them who has been instrumental on this progress and change.
So my conclusion on your belief is wayward of me, and I am sorry. if and when this will be the direction of such a future manifestation, boy we will have a perfect world. Don't you think?

Have a nice day and you and I are lucky because the recognizance of this inherent right means a lot towards a progressive development of mankind and for the whole world. Sad to say though, because there a lot of women out there who are not even aware of such a right.
Note: I am not in anyway advocating any of those extremes that you have clarified and I am so comfortable with the fact that we do, as women and men, in all aspect is given an equal treatment. My exact point.
Have a good day.

I have been mulling this over all day. Not only the problem you posted But I was also Looking for the reason I would shy away from this subject.
And this is what I came up with.
In my opinion we should be looking at human rights.
We are all human and as such our problems should be addressed as in this manner. Instead of fighting for Woman's equality why not equality for all ?
In my opinion there are People in the world lacking POLITICAL, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL RIGHTS. Not just women.
Putting emphasis on one group will inadvertently subtract importance from the other.
So my rebuttal to you is,
Do you think Women's issues should gain priority over all other questions on Human conditions ?
Or should we allow tge full integration because the direction it goes to is never the ending?
Now yes, globally speaking it has to be an even play for both genders. I absolutely agree with you. But its like okey there are countries in tge world who hasn't any issue on the practice of such. My main direction is let it be global then and sell tge benefit t those who refuse to access the service to women
Then let's proceed to your direction.
I will get back with you as my phone is, like you said, doesn't do justice for an argument with astronomical advantage for all
In a way you are right in your OP.
If you look at the ocean you only see its wavy surface but you know
its connected to every other drop on the surface of the planet somehow. It does not really matter where you start the clean up so long as you get the job done.
You have my respect too
First let's hear others' valued participation to generate an impact that can shake our ignorance but that t also plant the much needed materialistic implementation of this rights. Not only to gender of preference but to humankind
Lets do it Lou. Then its a responsibility for all that doesn't discriminate anybody's cultures. Global. Are you listening Non? And some possible pillars and stalwarts to this cause?
Thanks Lou. Now where is everyone when humanity needs them. Ah. The comfort of what tbey have. Complacency and ignorance.
Thanks again all of you guys
Very respectfully
