Gender Inequality in Mexico

Gender Inequality

Sexism

Gender Inequality is a societal norm in which girls are given less importance, less support and are treated diferently than boys. This phenomenon has been around for thousands of years, but has been swlowly changing in favor of equal rights and feminism. This, however, isn't the case for many countries, such as Mexico.

SEXISM

Sexism refers to the general prejudice there is towards women simply and for the pure fact that they're women. In Mexico, 58% of the female population feels as though they've been or are actively being discriminated solely because of their gender. Along with being paid less, having to endure constant harassment and being the demographic that's in the most risk of being hurt, injured or even killed, women in Mexico are largely discontent and even afraid of the position they're in.

Chauvinism

Chauvinism is the belief that men are generally more intelligent, more capable and better than all women just because of gender. Mexico is one of the countries in which chauvinism is extremely prevalent in both culture and society. Even nowadays, the mexican society is quite sexist due to these damaging beliefs being passed down generation from generation. Changes are ocurring, but chauvinism is deeply rooted in Mexico, so changes in favor of women are usually overlooked.
