We have legal gender equality but culturally speaking Auzkhia is patriarchal. It isn't as strong as it used to be but males usually have more power in society compared to females.

Since the absence of family and childbirth in our species no longer places certain obligations on our womenfolk, there's not really much reasons left to treat them differently from men.

Still, old customs like opening door to a lady and not speaking profanities in the presence of women are appreciated.
Proud National Socialist. Blaming everything on the liberals since 2000.

The world is full of criminal enterprises and terrorist organizations. The most successful ones are known as states.

Life is like surfing the Internet - there's no meaning or purpose, yet you don't really want to quit either.

The fact that slaves are allowed to elect their masters does not abolish the division in masters and slaves.

Don't try to deride me by calling me an "-ist" or "-phobe" unless you are referring to a medical condition or are trying to compliment me.

Socially-liberal capitalist democracy DOES NOT equate to free society.

Contrary to popular belief, National Socialists aren't racists. They simply hate their own race less than others.

Women are only allowed to have sex with men. (and vice-versa) Women may also not style themselves like a man. (and vice-versa) Beyond that, very few to no double-standards exist for women. (and men) Even still, we see them as absolutely necessary in order to preserve the purity of our nation. (as well as other nations, what with being radically fundamentalist and all)

Yes.

-Women still do not have suffrage, even if they are landowning nobility.

-Women generally don't hold high paying jobs, a lot of them work in mills, or stay at home and tending to their families.

-Wages differ by at most 20% between male and female workers.

-Women can serve in militias, but not in the conventional armed forces.

-There are no rules barring women from politics but its discouraged socially because of our country's conservative culture.

They are treated only on a minor basis, since females are traditionally expected to stay home to look after their offspring but do have a good amount of freedom of movement and such as well as being able to get jobs once the children grow old enough to not rely on the parents as much as they were when they were infants. Otherwise, they are largely equal with males with different cultural rules befitting the different races/species and their ways of life.

Commoners don't care what you've got down there, but our "nobility" are an interesting case. While the men are learning to ride horses and fence, the women are learning to drive tanks and fire machine guns. Basically, our noblemen are dandies while our noblewomen are bowel-looseningly badass. Some theorize that it's genetic memory making up for lost time. Just for reference:

Aside from certain biological considerations, no. That said, it is often expected for men and women to act differently in different situations and thus approach things such as careers, sports, etc. in different ways, but those who do not are not usually discriminated against, and never in a legal sense.

They are not allowed to join the Regulars, so they can only take a part time job in the Army Reserves, or a youth organisation.
