The object of this paper is to show the possible future tendencies in this context, insofar as opportunities arise for both men and women to both fully develop their capacities and to take advantage of the same within their surroundings. The case study focuses on the municipalities of the northeast region of Mexico, formed by the states of Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas, for the years 1995, 2000 and 2005. A reduction in the inequality gap in health, education and income is observed, although the condition of women is still far from being on a par with that of men, especially where resources for a dignified life are concerned. The most noticeable gap between men and women is related precisely to the limited access and control of resources that allow women to make their own decisions regarding their lives and consequently, their empowerment is marginal. través de índices provenientes de variables fácilmente medibles, se estudian los avances y retrocesos de la sociedad en su lucha por la equidad de género en México y su relación con el desarrollo humano. Se muestran las posibles tendencias que tomará dicho problema a futuro en la medida en que se brinden oportunidades, tanto a mujeres como a hombres, para el pleno desarrollo de sus capacidades y la utilización de las mismas en su entorno. El estudio de caso se enfoca en los municipios de la región noreste del país, conformada por los estados de Nuevo León y Tamaulipas, en los años 1995, 2000 y 2005. Se observa una reducción en la brecha de la desigualdad en opciones de salud, educación e ingreso, aunque la condición de la mujer respecto al hombre está aún muy lejos de ser equitativa, especialmente en recursos para una vida digna. La posición de las mujeres respecto a la de los hombres muestra el rezago más notable, ya que el acceso y control de recursos que les permitan decidir sobre sus propias vidas son muy limitados y consecuentemente su empoderamiento es marginal.
