Okay world, stop for a second, close your eyes and breathe for a second. Now think why does everything have to be like this? Why do women have to be less privileged just because they are women and our society assumes that we can't be as successful as men are? Women can be successful as well and maybe in some cases, better than men. Women are more passionate about what they do and with what they want they tend to want more. They tend to put more feelings in everything that they do and that's why their work has a bigger impact on our society than those of eager men that think that they deserve more even though women do the exact same things and receive less for what they do.

In which case the disruption of gender roles is based on the attitudes and behaviors that are expected us. In our society boys are expected since they are “macho” to be involved in sports during their childhood and be interested in cars, etc. and girls to dress pretty, play with dolls and be delicate at all times.

It’s intention is to involve men and women as intermediaries to achieve gender equality and women’s rights encouraging them and extending them an invitation to take action against the daily inequalities faced by women and girls in our society. Gender equality had been a fight led by women for women in which men now are standing up for the inequalities and discrimination of women and girls in our present days. It is all about unity, bringing one half of the humanity together to support the other half of the humanity for the benefit of it all.
