I grew up as the second smartest student in the class, because the smartest was a girl who used to get higher marks than mine every year. Only two or three of the top ten were boys in most of the primary school classes. So from a very young age, if you ask a Tunisian boy about whether it’s right to say that boys are smarter than girls, he would laugh at you!
If you check Science baccalaureate classes you will find 5 boys and 25 girls in the average. If you check medical, paramedical or pharmacological universities you will find a similar majority of female students AND professors. The opposite applies only to technology universities but this is still remarkable.
Now I work in a factory where most of the bosses are women, maybe that’s why most of the new recruits are girls😏. Of course this is not a general case, but neither is the opposite.
So many NGO’s I know, or I’m member of, have women presidents.
It’s so hard to offend women in a country that was founded by a woman. You can ask google about “Elissa of Carthage” (known also as “Dido”).
It’s hard to offend women in a country where a political party can not run for parliament or for any local or regional authority if it doesn’t have equal number of women and men in it’s list or if it doesn’t have equal number of women and men as “head of the list” if the party has many lists in many places in Tunisia.
This is Tunisia, an Arab, Muslim, African country. How many countries in the world can beat this?
Because that’s what countries should be competing on 😉
You think you have something to say about womens rights, gender inequality or Women Heroes but you're hesitating?
