联合国报告：90%的人对女性有歧视

A new U.N. report has found at least 90 percent of men and women hold some sort of bias against females.

The Gender Social Norms index analyzed biases in areas such as politics and education in 75 countries.

Globally, close to 50 percent of men said they had more right to a job than women. Almost a third of respondents thought it was acceptable for men to hit their partners.

There are no countries in the world with gender equality, the study found.

Zimbabwe had the highest amount of bias with only 0.27 percent of people reporting no gender bias at all. At the other end of the scale was Andorra where 72 percent of people reported no bias.

In Zimbabwe, 96 percent of people said violence against women was acceptable and the same proportion did not support reproductive rights. In the Philippines, 91 percent of people held these views.

According to the report, about half of the world’s men and women feel that men make better political leaders.

In China, 55 percent of people thought men were better suited to be political leaders.

Around 39 percent of people in the United States, which is yet to have a female president, thought men made better leaders.

However in New Zealand, a country that currently has a female leader, only 27 percent of people thought that.

The number of female heads of government is lower today than five years ago with only 10 women in such positions in 193 countries, down from 15 in 2014.

However when it comes to seats in parliament, there is a slightly higher percentage of women in these roles.

Latin America and the Caribbean had the highest share of seats in parliament held by women with 31 percent. South Asian countries had the lowest percentage at just 17 percent.

Women are paid less than men and are much less likely to be in senior positions. Globally, 40 percent of people thought men made better business executives.
