Is there gender equality in Spain?

Well, yes… but no. 
If we look back, we can see that in the  
Francoist era women couldn’t drive or open a bank account without her their husbands’s permission. 
These days there are a lot of countries where women can’t even vote or leave their own homes for going to a walk without a man. So in this sense, we have a kind of gender equality.
But there’s still a lot to do. In this country womaen have to work 84
days more a year for (in order) to collect the same wage of salary/pay as a man, a woman can’t abort and some business don’t hire women because they would “distract” their male employees.
So we can do a lot of more things to improve this situation. But we wouldn’t reach anything if we fold our arms.
