It's the 21st century and people still have sexist and racist views and mentalities. We wrote this article in hopes of changing some of your minds about how gender and race doesn't affect a person's personality or capability. We're all equal and have the same capabilities and responsibilities.
1. Color doesn't define your intelligence.
Many people are under the assumption that certain races lack intelligence when compared to others. However, that is not true. A person's intelligence is dependent on many factors such as study habits and living environment.
2. Being male or female makes no difference
The idea that men are superior to women started thousands of years ago. However, this is the 21st century where anyone can be anything. Being a female doesn't mean they're unintelligent or unfit for jobs. They are capable of everything men are.
3. The color of someone's skin doesn't determine their personality
People around the world decide to label someone and judge their personality without even meeting them and just by looking at the color of their skin. I would like to remind you that the color of your skin is simply to signify your race. What determines their personality are living factors, environment and their mentality. Do not judge a person without knowing them well first.
4. Women are taking the lead in the 21st century.
Women, in this new era, are ruling many areas of study such as medical research, space, medicine and government. Some great examples would be Nancy Pelosi, the current Speaker of the House of Representatives and Theresa May, the current prime minister of Britain. Men aren't the only ones achieving great things.
5. Women have more outreach and appeal than men.
In many sectors, women are more in demand than men. For example, in the entertainment industry, women leads, such as Ariana Grande and Emma Watson have many more followers and influence. In colleges, women are more favored, especially in STEM majors such as medicine and engineering.
