Stereotypes of women

Stereotypes of women are generalized beliefs that unfairly assume certain traits, roles, or behaviors based on gender. These often include ideas that women are less capable in leadership, overly emotional, or primarily interested in homemaking. Such stereotypes overlook individual differences and can lead to discrimination, limiting opportunities and reinforcing inequality. Recognizing these biases is essential to promoting fairness and understanding that women, like all people, have diverse skills, interests, and strengths beyond societal stereotypes.
