How does the poem 'Mirror' address the problem of gender equality?

Dear Student,
Given below is the answer to your question.

• The poet depicts the image of a woman who is dependant on the mirror to assess herself.
• However, this is a age old belief that has been handed down over generations and the assumption that woman is dependant on someone or something is imbibed by the world around.
• But, with the passage of time, one comprehends that the role played by both men and women are equal and their significance in the society is irreplaceable.
• It is the outlook to their duties that makes a difference and than often degrades them.
• It is important that the society understands that in order to create a perfect equilibrium, both men and women are equal and gender equality is to be encouraged.
