Equality means "fairness". To be fair in all aspects of life is just great if it happens in the real sense of the word. In America and other parts of the world, having equal rights and opportunities isn't an issue. Age doesn't matter, personality and other qualification aren't their concern. Unlike here in the Philippines, employment is one big problem. There are times you are fit, but there is no job available for you. Or the job is there and still you are not in for the qualifications needed for that job. What happens therefore is that, one who needs employment doesn't choose anymore what kind of job he or she is going to perform. What really matters is to have an opportunity whether it is a white or blue collar job. Especially at this point in time, it is most important to have an earning to support at least yourself and not to rely on others for your needs.
On the other hand, equal rights, equal opportunities apply most likely in political dome. That is, man and woman are already mingling in different political positions these days. During the early times, there were only few women who had courage to join men in running for any position in the government. And this is a good sign. Women can now say, "if men can, why can't we?"
