Women and the girl children are treated differently and unequally.They are subjected to gruesome chores related to the Kitchen. On the contrary men and the boy children are held at high esteem not only in Kenya but the whole world.The same male chauvinism is portrayed in The Whale RIDER.
Generally women undertake mundane roles mostly related to housekeeping.The roles are fatiguing and quite cumbersome. Koro Apirana,leader of Maori people cannot reconcile his traditional belief about leadership even with the birth of Kahuha Terangi.
Koro Apirana tries to get three sons from the loyal bloodline so as not to pass the mantle of leadership and knowledge to the granddaugher.
Kahuha loves Koro irrevocably but she does not receive much love from Koro Apirana . Koro Apirana convenes classes to teach young people about important aspects of Maori culture.However,he excludes girls from those classes.
Women are excluded from fishing activities.Fishing is considered a sacred activity but the women would fall in the category of un sacred beings.
Koro is opposed to name the girl child after the founder of the tribe simply because she is a female child."......he felt it would be little Kahuha's prestige."
In male dominated society which is engulfed by male chauvinism, women and girls are discriminated against. This bias is common in many countries in the world.
