Gender equality will only be reached if we are able to empower women.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There never will be complete equality until women themselves help to make laws and elect lawmakers.
Equality for women is progress for all.
Gender equality is more than a goal in itself. It is a precondition for meeting the challenge of reducing poverty, promoting sustainable development and building good governance.
If women really want equality, we have to wipe the slate clean. It no longer matters in the largest sense what men did to us for the last 200 or 300 years.
I will feel equality has arrived when we can elect to office women who are as incompetent as some of the men who are already there.
We need to empower women. Give women a voice in the decision-making process. Give women a political voice where they can champion, for their own welfare. And, of course, for us. United Nations - organizations, agencies - we need to do our part.
With more women in power, the world would be better off.
Achieving gender equality requires the engagement of women and men, girls and boys. It is everyone's responsibility.
Women will only have true equality when men share with them the responsibility of bringing up the next generation.
Genuine equality between the sexes can only be realized in the process of the socialist transformation of society as a whole.
