However they are always at risk of losing their job(s) for a number of reasons maybe because the factory they work at is closing down or…

almost twenty years later, progress has been made. According to Deputy Director R. Tulchin, the gender gap in primary education has closed.

household and dynamics of family and work. This prevailing idea accepted by the majority of America in history, could completely be turned into a new scenario.

ask questions of the universe…[and] is the way he achieves his own identity” (Baldwin 326). Education allows young men and women to gain skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to benefit the society, yet in many countries, specifically Saudi Arabia, their education system is gender bias against women.
