dc.description.abstractGender has nowadays become one of the major ways to classify population in societies. Much as it may look natural, there is more into it than the sexual divide that exists between men and women. There is a big imbalance in many aspects when it comes to men and women that has been created not by nature but by social constructions; unfortunately the tilt has in many cases been against women. Statisticians – whether from the World Bank, national governments or locally-based NGOs use this classification in order to highlight the extent to which the sexual divide one belongs to can be advantageous or disadvantageous in relation to access to resources, division of labour, participation in politics, and so on. As most of us are aware, the female gender has been disadvantaged in most aspects. However, women have decided to organize and address the situation. They have now realized that they have been victims of unjust socio-political systems and that there has to be a fight back.en_US
