Abstract

The status of women is an important social index of progress. Historically women have been subjugated and treated as the subordinate sex for several centuries. Unequal gender relations of power in which men's domination and women's subordination prevail as an institutionalized social norm in most of the societies calls for a systematic understanding of the roots which hold it strong despite the winds of change.
