Gender equity has been a trendy thing that is talked about in many sectors and organization. There are lots of perspectives that people have given in this regard based on their culture or other factor. The recent shared perspective is on this subject. There are lots of gender inequity that is happening in our society presently. Some relegate the women to local champions while others see men too with another different perspectives. In this post, I would like to raise the concerns that brings about the gender base violence that is happening in our society.
Due to these perception, it has really caused a negative impacts in the life of an average man or woman towards either financial responsibility or other aspects of life.

Many at times I don't like the way society looks at women even in the place of marriage. I know everyone is entitled to his or her opinion concerning this however I would like to say this also based on my own understanding and perspective. I think in this matter everyone's opinion should be valid and appreciated.

In my area, most people feel women are weak hence they shouldn't be allowed to handle weightier matter like in critical decision making. Some men don't even allow their wives to know how much they earn. Everything is secretive and there's high fear and lack of trust, confidence etc. This normally results to lots of crisis and chaos in families today. I don't think this should be matter but the two people should learn how to strike balance. I know of a family that scattered due to the inability to confide in themselves. The Financial purse of the house shouldn't just be the secretive to the woman but it should be open so that the woman could step in to even support appropriately.

The reason why some men don't entrust their wives with money because they are extravagant and don't even have scale of preference. To curb this, there's a need for a round table discussion the men preferred keeping secrets and restricting such women from taking part in the strong decision.

Another gender base violence I noticed of recent of is that woman are mostly seen and considered factory for children production. No any regards for her instead most glory goes to the man.
Family affair should be a symbiosis kind of relationship where both the man and woman are contributors towards the development of the house.

As i begin to conclude, is not just the women that have been abused but there are men that are going through lots of traumatic experiences because of how the society looks at them and the negative perception of women towards them. Some women noticed that the weakness in their husband, they leverage on it for selfish reasons. It's not good.
Both women and men are humans hence there's need to create space for everyone to feel loved and cared for.

Thanks for reading through.

Weakness attached to women is a social construct but women also assisted in fuelling this notion. Most women want to be taken care of without having to contribute anything, in so doing, unknowingly they delegate their right to have an opinion to their male counterparts.

Gender equity is a far more different concept than gender equality, in the sense that, gender equity seeks fairness and justice for all individuals and providing opportunities for every gender based on each gender strength and weakness but gender equality seeks equal opportunity for all regardless of gender, which is what most women are seeking.

The fact is, there are things men can do that women consider to be a struggle and there are things women can do that men can't. We all need a change of perspective, each gender needs understand and value each other place in the society.

You are right and thank you for opening my eyes to this truth

You get it.. Both genders faces the inequity especially in financial aspect for men while it is maritally for women most times

Thanks for the input
