women:

Gender based discrimination against female children is pervasive across the world. It is seen in all the strata of society and manifests in various forms.[2] As per the literature, female child has been treated inferior to male child and this is deeply engraved in the mind of the female child. Some argue that due to this inferior treatment the females fail to understand their rights. This is more predominant in India as well as other lesser developed countries. Sex selection of the child before birth and neglect of the female child after birth, in childhood and, during the teenage years has outnumbered males to females in India and also in countries like Bangladesh and South Korea.[2] There are 1029 women per 1000 men in North America[3] and 1076 women per 1000 men in Europe,[4] but there are only 927 women per 1000 men in India.[5] These numbers tell us quite a harsh story about neglect and mistreatment of the female child in India. Women have a biological advantage over men for longevity and survival, yet there are more men than women.[1][2][6] The figures above support that gender discrimination of female child is a basic facility area. Though the demographic characteristics do not show much or in some cases, anti-female bias, there is always a woman who receives a small piece of the pie.

men:

In France, a man applied for a position in a children’s

holiday centre with responsibility for health and first

aid. His application was refused because – in the

context of concerns over child sexual abuse – the centre

management wanted to recruit a woman. The male

job-seeker petitioned the High Authority against

Discrimination and for Equality (HALDE). The Authority

sent a letter to the employer stating that the decision

was discriminatory; it also informed the public

prosecutor. 7
