Abstract

The Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) defines equality and says how to achieve it. The policies propose frameworks to live equally, but: how do you do this if it is society that teaches us to be unequal? This paper provides a historical overview of progress and setbacks on gender equality. By examining this phenomenon perhaps we get to know a social reality that impacts men and women differently. Currently, progress on gender equality can be seen, but in turn, inequitable ways that continue to favor male roles over the female are manifested.
