The United Nations just wrapped up an event focused on gender equality. Gender equality is the concept that men and women had exactly the same opportunities and rights in society, that they aren’t discriminated against based on gender.
Women in the United States have it better than many in the world. They aren’t forced into marriage at a young age. They can live in the house without their husband’s permission. They can pursue an education and vote. But there are ways the U.S. lags behind other nations.
Most obviously, paid maternity leave. Studies show it’s good for families and for businesses, which is why many countries insist on it. In France, for example, women are guaranteed at least 16 weeks paid maternity leave, 26 weeks if it’s their third child. New moms in Estonia get two full years of paid leave. Only four countries in the world do not guarantee any form of paid maternity leave. The United States is one of them.
Then, roughly 84 percent of countries, including Afghanistan, guarantee gender equality in their constitutions. The U.S. Constitution does not.
5 What did the event wrapped up by the UN focus on?
6 What do we learn about the women in the United States?
7 What are the conditions of gender equality outside the U.S.?
