Gender stratification refers to the unequal distribution of resources, opportunities, and power between men and women in a society. It is a system in which women are generally disadvantaged and have lower social, economic, and political status compared to men. This can be seen in various aspects of life, such as education, employment, income, healthcare, and representation in positions of power.

Gender stratification is reinforced by cultural beliefs, social norms, and institutional practices that perpetuate gender roles and stereotypes. It can lead to gender-based discrimination, violence against women, and limited access to resources and opportunities. Gender stratification is a form of social inequality that has significant impacts on individuals' lives and society as a whole.
