The article reviews Mukhtar Auezov's works as a source of studying gender relations in the Kazakh society of the early 20th century. The conceptual views of Mukhtar Auezov on gender relations in traditional Kazakh society, the need for the formation of gender consciousness through changing attitudes towards women in their position in the family and society are revealed. The concept of "woman - everything began" sounds like a call for the liberation of women from the stereotypes of female defectiveness. The personality of the woman is the most important factor of the cultural and spiritual and moral development of society, which allows to form the consciousness of future generations of children. Through the attitude of the Kazakh intelligentsia to the position of women, an understanding is revealed of the need for retransmission of gender consciousness and gender relations, which are introduced from cultural religious stereotypes of other societies. The idea of changing the national gender relations is based on the understanding of the change in the gender psychology of the woman herself, reflected in the gender consciousness. Relations based on spiritual and moral principles, where a woman in a society takes a place next to a man, and not only in a narrow circle of the family hearth that is burdened with nothing but routine, will expand her horizons and inspire her to devote her life to the cultural development of the society and its spiritual growth. The concept of M. Auezov "Woman - everything began" does not lose its relevance even in the modern period of state development. The ideas put forward by the thinker can be viewed as a national program for the development of Kazakhstan's society, in which an important role is assigned to activating women in public and political life and creating conditions for their equal participation at all levels of the state administration system.
