As people from all around the world are gathering this month in New York City for the United Nations’ annual Commission on the Status of Women, to focus on the theme of “achieving gender equality and empowerment of women and girls” in a variety of settings, I think it’s especially important that we consider the widely embraced flawed understanding of “gender equality” and how this dangerous idea in fact cheats women and girls.
