ABSTRACT
Gender prejudice, the entrenched practice of unfair and detrimental treatment based on gender or sex, permeates various facets of life, including the realms of economy, education, occupation, health, politics, and society. This form of discrimination is deeply ingrained in cultural norms and gender relations that subordinate women. This research aims to delve into the root causes, effects, and damages wrought by gender prejudice within parliamentary settings, with a concurrent focus on identifying potential remedies. A sample size of 200 respondents participated in the study, providing insights through the administration of questionnaires. The research employed a convenient sampling method, selecting participants based on accessibility and ease. Despite a certain level of awareness across diverse demographics regarding the causes, effects, and solutions for gender discrimination, a significant portion of the population remains uninformed about the profound impact of gender prejudice on inherent rights. It is imperative to disseminate information widely and devise strategies to curtail gender prejudice within parliamentary contexts. This research seeks to canvass the opinions and perspectives of the general public, offering recommendations to address the reasons behind gender prejudice and proposing effective remedies to foster inclusivity and equality within parliamentary systems.
