Gender Equality by Shuhua Lu

Gender Equality by Shuhua Lu

The article, Choosing Clothes, but Not Husbands, talks about the women’s situations and rights in Afghan through describing the way they get married.

The writer, Joseph Berger, enumerates a lot of people’s thought. The most impressive one is “men have corrupted views of Islam and actually believe women are second-class citizens…for more than a few families even the notion of educating their daughters beyond high school is regarded as daring…And men actually think they have a right under the Koran to beat their wives.,” said by Ms. Naderi. I think that it is absolutely a stupid, bossy and arbitrary opinion, which should not exist in modern society.

Individuals are born equal. Everyone has right to receive education or pursue love. These are natural rights, which will not change because of nationality, race or gender.

ok you are right the way you think but you should consider about other people. There are so many people in the world which has no education or they have different belive than we have. Even thought some things that they do is so stupid and bossy this is the way they belive. Some people are too relligios and they never learned something like "gender equality". My point is yes they are wrong and so annoying but this is the way they learn, their father did same things to his mother and he learned like that. His society is like that, he would be isolated if he will be equal with her wife or any other woman. So everything is not easy to change or judge... Dila...
