According to many people, gender inequality still exists. Men do not consider themselves as being equal to women, but ladies think they are pretty equal. The issue of gender inequality remains a heated debate in the human, social and political development. We have witnessed a relentless war between men and women in all platforms from employment to relationships. Throughout history, various attempts have been made to harmonize this conflict of gender inequality through the implementation of policies that impose strict punishments who attempt to exhibit gender biases. The continuous conflict is the evidence for the existence of gender inequality in the society.
Most scholars have argued that the gender pay gap in workplaces the major cause of inequality. In most workplaces, the issue of educational and skills level is the primary cause of wage gap where women are being discriminated regardless of their level of education and skills. However, numerous studies have demonstrated that senior women employees earn less than their male juniors and few women hold top positions in companies as compared to men across the world. Business owners do not believe in women leading their business thus prefer to have men managers instead.["Gender Inequality and Women in the Workplace." N.p., n.d. Web. 15 May 2015.]
The issue of gender equality in relationships has been the dominating one throughout history where power is divided along gender lines. According to various studies, the issue of stereotype has greatly increased in the societies. Men think that women with high intelligent quotient lack traits that are needed to keep a relationship. The roles are changing in families, and the working women are the ones who are feeling the greatest pain. The inequality is demonstrated when a married couple starts to argue about how is in charge of family issues and who is mainly responsible for the earning income.[Jackson, Robert.

The political forum is where gender inequality is exercised at its fullest. In both developed and developing countries, it is not easy for a woman to be elected to a public office. A recent example is the last USA presidential elections between Hillary Clinton and President Donald Trump. In public opinion, Hillary had the upper hand, but Trump defeated her. Majority of the citizens argued that despite she had good policies, as a super power, America should not be governed by a woman. They further added that America needs a strong person who can make hard decisions something women are not well acquainted with. Women are considered to be soft. Women who engage in politics experience the worst form of inequality especially those from developing countries where women are not allowed to speak in public.
