GENDER EQUALITY


Unlike the old days, the difference between men and women is no longer felt the difference. Everything feels fine as an equal and equal opportunity. But in fact, if seen from the number of world leaders, the ministers in Indonesia career positions for women there are still gaps in careers. From this statement, arises a question. Is gender equality necessary in Indonesia?


You could say, gender equality cannot be felt by all women. We are equal, but not yet evenly distributed. The biggest problem is the possibility of child marriage in which 15% of girls in Indonesia marry at the age of less than 18 years (Unicef, March 2018). In addition to this, which endangers health, can increase the high circle of poverty due to the loss of the right to school, weaken economic power, and eventually return to the same cycle which leads to cultural habits. That should be stopped.

The good news, the government in Indonesia drafted regulations that raise the minimum limit for women to get married. Then, what can overcome the problems faced by women in Indonesia? Like paint calling, sexual harassment, domestic violence, to traditional stereotypes that require women to always take care of domestic work. Although being a housewife is a noble occupation, women are still confused between careers or households and create competition that is not equal to men. Because, employment forms men for superior career. However, the phenimists are not solely women. Men also include feminists. For example, it wants to equalize employment opportunities in public spaces, and job facilities. Many jobs can actually be employed by women. But because of the public stereotype. Not to mention when there is a termination of employment, women are often disadvantaged because women are laid off first. Job opportunities owned by women also tend to be fewer for women. However, some jobs that "he said" in the field of women, for example midwives, cooks, nurses and so on, actually men also work there.

Gender equality may be synonymous with the struggle for women, but the reality of gender equality is not solely for women. Gender equality is pursued by feminists to cut down the rights that have been enjoyed by men so that they can also undermine their rights to women. So in reality men become disadvantaged in the pursuit of gender equality.

There are many role models of women who have shown that women can lead. Open education like now must also be utilized to the maximum extent so that women can also prove that women can be like men.

so the leader doesn't only come from men but can also come from women. so be proud of us as women. don't ever want to be considered a weak people.

HAM UNTUK LGBT

   HAM UNTUK LGBT       Oleh : Jeni Arsyad. HS  Tentunya kita semua tau apa itu HAM atau Hak Asasi Manusia. Bahkan sejak masih menduduki bangku SD kita sudah diperkenalkan dengan HAM. Yang kita tau, HAM merupakan hak yang sejatinya telah ada dan melekat dalam diri kita semenjak kita dilahirkan hingga kita meninggal sebagai makhluk ciptaan Tuhan Yang Maha Esa, dan tidak ada seorang pun yang berhak mengganggu gugat ketetetapan tersebut. Tapi pertanyaannya adalah apakah HAM itu benar-benar ada? Dari segi Hukum, sudah jelas keberadaan HAM itu benar adanya. Bahkan, telah dijelaskan juga dalam Undang-Undang. Dalam pasal 28 misalnya. Tapi jika kita lihat dari segi pengimplementasian, sepertinya belum. Buktinya, banyak ketidakadilan yang terjadi disekitar kita dan hal itu dibiarkan begitu saja bahkan beberapa diantaranya ada juga yang dibenarkan. Di Indonesia sendiri ada begitu banyak kasus pelanggaran HAM yang disepelekan dan tidak mendapatkan perhatian dari ...
