With the development of society, some issues gradually come into the public’s view. For example, unequal treatments of women recently have been noticed in several areas. As we all know, the Nobel Peace Prize of 2018 was awarded to Nadia Murad and Denis Mukwege who fought against violence towards women. In my opinion, it’s necessary to figure out the internal causes behind the issues toward women and how to change the bad situation.

First, in my view, attitudes toward women are biased in many countries. It actually was inherited from the old era when only men could hunt, fight and so on. So that kind of stereotypes cannot be changed easily. However, there are plenty of women who can work even in the higher level of business and society. For example, the number of elected female leaders around the world is rising. Women are making big progress recently.

Second, I doubt that education dose not develop as fast as the society does. Even people in some developed areas still have immature thoughts toward women, even in education. For instance, there is a documentary named Japan's Secret Shame, produced by BBC, the theme of which is a Japanese girl who fights for her rights by accusing a renowned journalist who raped her in 2015. Actually, statistics indicate that many events like this occurred around the world. But now, women are brave enough to speak out. It is a good beginning for equality and a healthy trend for education.

Third, from my point of view, protections of women are incomplete. No matter how a society develops, danger to women still exists. In order to protect women from harm, some assessments are necessary. For example, a lot of incidents happened because of an application named DIDI for taxi business in China. Some drivers are not suitable for their positions, which led to horrible results. After that, DIDI began to reconstruct their system and rectify the assessment of the policy and the drivers. Though what happened has happened, prevention is still indispensable.

In conclusion, because of stereotypes, immature educations and incomplete protections for women, unequal issues happen all the time. But they are not unchangeable. On one side, women are fighting for their equal rights in career and life. On the other side, the world is pursuing a better environment for women and giving more attention to equality. The situation is not perfect but it is changing to become better.
