Position of women in
Buddhism has been debated for a long time. In my article, I will try to figure
out the real situation of women in Buddhism. I will discuss something about
sexism in Buddhist religion. There seem to be many difficulties that women
following Buddhism are facing. I will highlight some of them in my article. I
will also discuss the inferiority issues and how women are perceived as an
inferior being in Buddhism. I will focus on the birth issues in Buddhist
culture and religion in my article. I will be talking about how the birth of a
woman is considered in Buddhism. I will also talk about the difficulties women
are facing following Buddhism. In this way, I will try to explore the room for
women in Buddhism in my article.
