How do you think gender inequality could slow down development?

Question

In terms of development what will gender inequality do do slow down the development

Answer 1

Respect.  Genders are not equal.  They are both equally human but they are physical manifestations of universal principles of masculine and feminine.  They are different.

One is always better than the other in something.  Men are automatically perceived as having The Advantage.  So women are constantly on the defensive.

Respecting the other gender is respecting yourself.  When one gender exploits its power over the other it disrespects itself.  Respecting others advantages is respecting yourself.

Gender inequality is the essence of development.  Each holds exclusive ownership of one half of life so no one gender has it all.  Women abuse their power more today.

Answer 2

When half the population are restricted as to what they can do with their lives, there's a smaller pool of ideas, talents, sources of innovation.
