Abstract. Relevance of research. Any religion in the world emphasizes the woman's
femininity, namely an anthropological feature that does not require similarity with the
functional features of her husband. However, in turn, it has the potential of a comprehensive
development of the individual as a mother, and the realization of the role of women in society.
The misconceptions that maternity lifts women's potential and suppresses their personal
development causes a lot of controversial issues that lead to negative manifestations of gender
inequality. Negative manifestations of the perception of false positions lead to terrible
structural changes in society, ruin (or shake) the foundations of the laws of motherhood, have
consequences of the aging of the nation, the loss of human spiritual humanism. Women lose
the opportunity to feel like a mother and transfer their love of work to work as a child.
Therefore, its main base anthropological identity is reduced to zero in this case and makes a
woman "uncertain" gender, which will never find its place in society. The aim of the study.It
based on the study of the anthropological horizons of gender inequality within the framework
of religious canons and modern trends in the manifestation of business, the loss of
anthropological value of women. The author's team has proved that each of the religions of
the world pays much attention to women as mothers, their roles in society with exceptional
abilities and special qualities. None of the religions does restrict women in revealing these
abilities, but places anthropological peculiarity on the first place of a woman-mother,
guardian of the family. Religion acts as a universal anthropological phenomenon, which
reveals each individual essential element characteristic of every person and emphasizes its
importance for society.
Keywords:gender, inequality, woman, women's potential, business, society, public
consciousness, religion.
