By many measures, the United States is the wealthiest economy in the
world. However, according to a recent survey, women do not benefit
nearly as much as men. The U.S. ranked 23rd in the world for gender
equality, behind countries including South Africa, Cuba, and the
Philippines. The World Economic Forum report, the 2013 Global Gender Gap
Report, measured the disparities between men and women in 136
countries. In the nations that scored the worst, economic and
educational opportunities, as well
as political representation and health outcomes, were far worse for
women than for men. According to the report, Iceland was the best
country for gender equality, while Yemen was the worst. These are the most unfair countries for women.
