In my opinion‚ men and women should have the same educational opportunities. However‚ I do not agree with the idea of accepting equal proportions of each gender in every university subject. Having the same number of men and women on all degree courses is simply unrealistic. Student numbers on any course depend on the applications that the institution receives. If a university decided to fill courses with equal numbers of males and females‚ it would need enough applicants of each gender. In reality

Roles of Women in Religion and the Challenges Imposed by Modern Society A man is incomplete without a woman‚ and a woman is incomplete without a man. These two species work together to keep the cycle of life going. One cannot function without the other but one is also different from the other. Religion has divided and has helped men and women understand their duties and responsibilities. There is a great deal of balance between these roles.

World War I made a great impact towards the status of women and African Americans living in the United States. Both of these groups were facing hardships and wanted to make a difference by voicing their opinions and change their roles in society and status. Eventually‚ after some time‚ they did.

Following Sorrita’s illustration on IDWs’ enjoying nightlife in Hong Kong‚ Susanti provides similar observation. Some IDWs‚ indeed‚ are the regular pubs visitors. Susanti gives example of an IDWs named Lasmini who engages in this particular life style simply because of her circle. Two consecutive days‚ she went with Made and friends visiting discotheque days and nights. She went back to consume alcoholic drink and ecstasy. “I have no place to sleep.

The challenge I would argue is to how to best foster an equal playing field without setting people up for failure if they are not able to meet the standards of success as determined by the education institution or corporation.
