Session 6





The role of a man and a woman in society is influenced by a variety of factors. These factors vary with the religion, culture, climate, historical beliefs, living principles and experiences across the globe.



These roles were segregated on the basis of sex, but now it is more of a choice and based on the interest of an individual. However, there are many societies in the world which continue to stick to the traditional gender roles. A female is usually expected, obliged to do or interested in household work and child care, leaving professional and social roles more for the males...








What about your country?




Are gender roles changing in your country?


- at work (Are there different barriers for men and women at work?)


- at home (Who does most of the work at home?)


Who do you think has life easier in your country, a man or a woman? Why?


Is equality between men and women possible?
