Gender is a socio-political and economic phenomenon in many countries. It revolves around the female and male gender. It does not deal with sexual differences per se, but rather the roles that are attached to a particular gender group. There have been different dimensions of accounting for different so-called gender roles. In Africa and Tanzania in particular, for instance, this is a matter of customs and religious beliefs and usage. These variables restrict males and females from doing this or that. In the strict sense, this does not mean that a person cannot accomplish a particular duty just because he or she belongs to a particular sex. Should that be the position then, there is no reason whatsoever as to which sex should exclusively be entitled to that and which should not. All sexes should have the same powers, to equally share the available resources among themselves. But this is not that much easy due to the traditions, customs and religious beliefs obtaining in different communities. However, a tradition or custom is not static. It shapes the society on the day-today basis. The changing circumstances of life also change the people and force them to adopt new ways of life that are at that particular moment operational: Thus, human rights issue has been on the forefront of the global political agenda. Tanzania has taken steps to respond to this on several occasions. In the 1980s we saw the inclusion of the Bill of Rights in the Constitution of the United Republic of Tanzania, 1977 as amended. Several legislations have been amended and up dated along the lines of the Bill of Rights. Others have been repealed and replaced by new versions.
