womens and childrens rights in other countries

I think that our country should be helping women and children recieve their rights in other countries. If we help other countries when they are in need, then I am sure that if the U.S ever needs help, we have countries that will be willing to help us. If we dont do anything about their rights, and don't help them, then we shoudn't expect any help from others. It is important for women and children to have their equal rights because everyone should be treated equally. Just because they are of a different gender doesn't mean that they should be treated equally. It is the same as being treated differently and not having equal rights because of one's ethnicity. I just think that it is completely wrong and I'm sure that there are people out there who strongly believe in what i believe in. Women and children in our country have their equal rights and I do not want to know what my life would be like if I did not have equal rights as every other human here.
