This paper attempts to investigate the thoughts of men and women on gender inequality in Pakistan. In present study, many aspects are discussed about gender discrimination. The data is collected using survey method, and 63% people give opinions that women are not treated fairly, while 71% feel discrimination between men and women in education and 57% say that parents give more importance to their sons as compared to daughters in Pakistan. The significant results demonstrate that women face gender inequality at home, in education and at workplace. Moreover, the relationship between different variables is calculated by using correlation coefficient, simple and multiple linear regression analysis. The value of R 2 = 0.54 illustrates that 54% variation is explained by the independent variable i.e. parents give more importance to their son and R 2 = 0.67 indicates that 67% variation is explained by the independent variables i.e. inspiration behind working women is, low family income and opportunities to perform social activities. It can be concluded that women are treated cold-heartedly within their homes by parents. Finally, it is suggested that Government and public both should work to promote education and professional development for women. Moreover, for the success of a country, there is need to remove the discriminatory attitude of the society towards the women.
