Question

Gender equality is an issue in the world today, but not in all regions of the world. In which regions might gender equality NOT be a topic of discussion?
In regions where gender equality is already reached.
In patriarchial societies where men dominate all leadership positions.
Only in small island countries without many women.
This is not a topic of discussion in places visited only by men.

Answer 1

The second alternative is correct (B).

Historically, women played a secondary role in societies, being limited, basically, to the care of the children, the house and the husband.

After many struggles, women gradually gained their place in Western societies. Currently, the discussion on gender equality is based on the search for wage equity and against macho thinking.

However, in some Eastern societies, of religious culture and or patriarchal, men still dominate all positions of leadership. In some countries, such as Saudi Arabia, women could not even drive until 2016. In such societies, women are practically the property of men. Since this type of culture involves religion, it is more difficult to establish a gender equality debate.

Answer 2

Generally speaking, it would be "In regions where gender equality is already reached," since this would meant that there is no need to further advance the rights of a certain gender (although this is incredibly rare in the world).
