In terms of our actual being, no. We are physically different and are both vital to survival of the species.
In terms of rights, that is catching up slightly in the civilised world (Excluding where Sharia Law may be dominant). With abortion being a right to a women which is legally accepted in most western countries, and the employment of women in professional roles increasing. Although, it has always been a problem for equal rights with women, even in the western world. Especially with the traditional role of women to be mostly homemakers and mothers, supporting the husband where ever possible. Men will always be selected over women in certain areas of employment, such as manual labour. That much is expected.
So, no, women and men are not equal, never have been and unfortunately, may never be.
