Human dignity is a Natural Right - At its core, it contains three elements, namely, intrinsic value, autonomy, and community value. Despite that Gender inequality and gender-based violence is a global problem. Universally recognized fundamental human rights like equality and protection for the Dignity of women are unlawfully getting intimidated in many countries. Invidious distinctions based on gender stereotypes always create a dent in the dignity of women, and one of the severe hurdles in the path of development for women is the attitude of people towards them. The biological weakness of women is also making her easy prey, particularly to physical domination. One of the most vital recourses would be empowerment. Only when women are empowered, many of the social issues of discriminations would decline, but practically, even women who are too much under the shadow of patriarchy are not supporting empowerment as well as aiding men to perpetrate violence as a weapon to exercise control over women This paper beacons the quagmire of women due to the patriarchal systems focusing on the Root cause of the issue by analyzing the relation between Zero-sum thinking of human nature & how it influenced in causing this social malice since six thousand years of human history. The data analysis is made by collecting data from different surveys, official statistics, books, articles, journals, websites, newspapers to deduce conclusions following facts as creation of a synergy, which is illustrated as the "2+2=5-effect," between men & women bestows supreme outcomes exceeding the moderate results (2+2=4) of individual entities to make our world an Earthly paradise. |
