“You know, it's a very sexist society, Indonesia.”

Simplified Meaning:
In Indonesia, men and women are often not treated equally. Men are given more opportunities and power while women face more restrictions and less freedom. For example, in many workplaces, men are more likely to get higher-paying jobs or promotions, even if women work just as hard. In families, boys might be encouraged to go to school and build careers, while girls are expected to help at home. This kind of thinking makes it harder for women to have the same chances in life as men. To make things better, society needs to start valuing men and women equally, offering the same opportunities and respect to everyone, no matter their gender.
