Question

What does gender division usually means?

• B. Unequal child sex-ratio
• C. Unequal roles assigned by the society to men and women
• D. Absence of voting rights for women.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Unequal roles assigned by the society to men and women

Gender Division means assigning or attributing roles to the people in the society based on their gender. Whereas it essentially demarcates the roles, it also proliferate inequality and bias by assuming that particular job is suitable for any specific gender e.g., women are supposed to work at homes while men can take up jobs outside.
