Question

• The newspaper report said, “Afsana has jumped over the wall. The gender wall that her mother had put up for her.” Think and write in your own words, what was this wall? What do you understand by ‘gender bias’?

Answer 1

Gender bias means differential treatment between boys and girls. Afsana also suffered from gender bias. Her mother wants her to do household work but she went for playing. She is trying to cross the wall of gender bias.
