| Abstract | ||||
| The current study examined whether the effect of gender and age discrimination had a different effect on the retirement of men and women later, focusing on the causes of the women's retirement crisis as a type compared to men in Egyptian society. This goal has been refuted into five sub-issues: (the basic social characteristics of the retired sex, the forms of gender and age discrimination to which the sex is before and after retirement, the types of emerging roles and roles excluded by sex and age before and after retirement, the dependency status of retired sexes, and the forms of planning For gender retirement and the nature of income and expenditure management after retirement, and finally the priority of problems facing the retired gender). The study started from the analyzes of socialist feminist theory and crisis theory, using the case study method, where an intentional sample was included that included selected cases consisting of 27 men and women from the city of Minya, who retired during the five years preceding the completion of the study. In general, the study concluded that: The difference in characteristics and individual privileges between the sexes does not qualify women to achieve a safe retirement in terms of gender compared to men. The results also monitored the vulnerability of women to inequality across institutional systems (family and work) to create gender benefits in favor of men. The results also revealed that women were negatively affected by opportunities lost due to gender and age in the public and private spheres throughout the life and at retirement period. The results also confirmed the impossibility of women practicing professional roles After retirement, women then adapted negatively to retirement by creating specific stereotyped roles and a pattern of expected dependency that would not be achieved with women enjoying luxury when retiring, unlike men in school cases. As a result, a more severe retirement environment is formed for women compared to men in study cases. | ||||
