This a no, no!

To say that fair rights between sexes was sorted across the world is a fairly big statement!

No I don't think that's happened yet..

Well obviously it's yet to happen within the societies of the citizens, I was referring more to the general laws. Or am I still mistaken ?

Looking at Sparky's post, I'd say that hasn't happened in every pocket of the world yet...

I think those places ruled by religion rather than a government will most probably not have equal rights between men and women..

I don't know too much either xD

Looks like this agreement thing has only come about in the last 40 years or so... and you can see where it doesn't apply...

I've actually read that page (my English final was on women's birth control and pro-choice rights). Women's rights are actually more recent than we think. But again, it varies per region. I find it interesting that the US didn't ratify.

I don't fully understand the situation in your country Sparky so take this with a grain of salt...
So, are women in your country treated as lesser or inequal to men ? I thought fair rights between sexes were sorted out a long time ago pretty much all across the world ?
But yeah; Im a noob at politics and foreign countries, especially their customs and cultures.

Well, They are treated inequal to men. They don't get jobs(only as teachers), and more I can't think of at the moment. x.x

They were fair rights before, back in my father's time(1965) they were happy and could do everything. Just the present changed.
