Title: Culture - Gender Roles
Headings: Gender Roles

Content: Unfortunately, in most societies tradition triumphs new cultural change and women are forced to follow the strict gender norms placed by their ancestors. However, strides to alter how language is written and interpreted in the future might provide a gateway to increased independence for women around the world. The case to be made when evaluating culture and gender roles is that what is considered to be an "oppressive" trait against women in one culture is not in another. It is difficult to argue that certain societies that hold what seem to be "outdated" cultural standards are lesser than societies that hold more "modern" cultural standards. In some instances, societies that follow traditional norms have greater stability and structure, most likely because it has been that way for hundreds, even thousands of years. Nevertheless, there seems to be no clear solution to resolve "women inequality" present in gender roles across various cultures. However, we can begin by addressing the rights that every human has, no matter the ethnicity, and compare that to how women and men are currently treated in society based on their gender roles. If there are any violations to a basic human right, it would be best to start there in hopes of up-keeping humanity and fostering great change.
