Women And The Rule Of Law

Almost universally it is cliamed that all human beings (i.e. men and women) are equal. Many new coinages like 'Chairperson', 'Feminism', 'women empowerment', 'women emanicpation' etc., came in vogue. Gender-discrimination is claimed to be prohibited at all spheres in all societies. Indians boasts of high status of women at equal (sometimes superior) footing in yore days. but these are all tall talks. Women are still considered and treated as inferior to men in all walks of life.
