Multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination and violence against women 2011, para. 18
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Despite such developments, the global discourse on women's human rights has been largely restricted to a framework of equality and non-discrimination against women versus men, i.e. an inter-gender focus, which is based on the male norm around which many major human rights instruments remain organized. Consequently important challenges remain in analyzing both non-discrimination and equality as implicating intra-gender differences among women.
