Are men better than women?

Are men better than women are? Today I have taken this topic to tell you about the previous centuries. Earlier people preferred to spend more money on their boys’ education rather than spending equally on both sons and daughters. Men are to do all the work outside the house whereas women have to do work inside the house. Nowadays in urban area women go to offices but still, in rural areas where women go to fetch water, collect fuel and work in the fields but do not get recognition for their work. Earlier only men were allowed to vote. But then women from different parts of the world fought for equal rights. This resulted in improving career and educational opportunities. In our country, 54 per cent women are literate whereas 76 per cent men are literate. Women members in Lok Sabha have never reached 10 per cent. Their share is less than 5 per cent in state assemblies. To solve this problem woman should legally have fair proportion in elected bodies. Nowadays one third of seats are reserved for women in elected bodies like panchayats and municipalities.
