Women own just one percent of the total wealth in the world. Just one measly percent.. What that essentially means is that out of all the companies, businesses, everything in the world, women control just one percent.
50 percent of the population n just one percent.How fair is that??
The discussion was not essentially about how much wealth they own, or how much they should.It was about a gender bias which is still so openly prevalent not just in our society but probably everywhere in the world.In India sexual harrassment at the workplace is still not a crime.It has not been defined as a seperate offence till date. Begging is an offence, smoking at public places is a offence,but.. Well I guess the government thinks acts like these are much more serious acts n deserve punishment but crime against women is not that serious,or important enuf to merit punishment.
