Traditional gender roles may be a thing of the past because today, not only men, but women are able to access some form of education. In the past, men were allowed to go to school and go to work, while women were expected to stay at home to take care of the household. However, due to the change in mindset, both men and women are allowed to go to school and study. For example in Singapore, children of both genders are expected to attend lessons in school. This means that both the men and women are given equal rights towards education. However, there are still societies whose cultures do not allow women to have an education. These only occur in a patriarch society, where men are considered the best and only the best are allowed to go to school and work, while the rest, like women are belittled. In such societies with extremist views, traditional gender roles are still in place today, for example in Iran. In Iran, the girls are not allowed to go to school, while the boys are entitled to it. Therefore, traditional gender roles are still present in societies today.
