Right to Equality and Gender Justice

Abstract

The history of gender equality do not run way back as it was until the end of 19^th century that women around the world started using this word. It was started with the feminist movements of voting rights and inclusion in politics, equal education etc. Resistance to the idea of gender equality drew its strength from Stoic and Platonic misogyny, which was reinforced and justified under different intellectual movements, from early Christianity through to the Enlightenment.
