Equality of Women in Sikh Ideology and Practice

This website is an article that discusses the status of Sikh women, from an ideological and practical standpoint. The article also mentions some injustices that women suffer in other religions. The author describes how Guru Nanak wanted Sikhism to advocate equality, especially equality between the sexes. The author also makes note of how this ideology is not practiced in modern times. This website is written by a Sikh woman, who, while a member of the tradition, feels as if the Sikh community is not following the teachings of its most important guru and is not treating women as equals.
