Why gender equality is good for everyone – including men

"How about the relationship between men and gender equality?" Gender equality is widely considered to be relevant only to women. This may be due to the fact that most men often think that gender equality is merely a moral need.

In the lecture by TEDWomen, Michael Kimmel invited men to "premature self-celebration" attitude towards gender equality. That is almost like a syndrome, the man said, "Thank you for pulling our attention, a woman, we will accept it from there." However, most men and women forget that men really support gender equality.

Gender equality is not only beneficial for the country but also the country with the highest gender equality is the highest score from the perspective of happiness - but it is also good for business. In fact, the more companies with gender equality, the faster the labor force, the lower the consumption level, the higher the satisfaction of work and the higher the productivity. However, most people forget that gender equality is good for men as well.

This generation has made tremendous changes. They expect not only to build positive and faithful relationships with their children, but also their partners pursue careers according to their ambitions.

In the speech, Michael also said that if men share housework and look after their children their partners will be more happy. This seems obvious, but it is not that obvious that the two partners get healthier. Therefore, when men and women share child-rearing and domestic affairs, the two will eventually be happy, and no one wants it?

Who does not want to make my country happy? Who does not want to make the company prosperous? Who does not want their partner to be healthy? Gender equality should not be viewed as black and white. Because it is an advantageous situation for both sides. Basically, unless we contact with men or boys, we can not empower women and girls completely.

But as Kimmel argued, gender equality is something men must sell. At Kinsip United, we sincerely believe. In order to change the belief system, men must trust gender equality. Kimmel continued to explain that men should believe because gender equality benefits everyone, The best country of gender equality is the highest score in terms of happiness. A country with a higher level of gender equality generally makes economic success. Educated women and women in the workplace are big economic assets. There is also evidence that companies with higher gender equality levels tend to have better workplaces. For more information on these insights, please see the presentation.

Common misnomer is that gender equality only means pay attention to women, but as its name suggests, it is about gender equality. Both men and boys need to be included in the conversation. And more often, to promote change for themselves and the surrounding people. In a mass speech at the United Nations headquarters in New York held in September 2014, Emma Watson officially launched the HeForShe campaign with actress and UN Women Global Goodwill Ambassador to participate in the fight against gender inequality I called.
