Ironically, the Equality State ranks among the worst for women's equality, according to a new report released Monday.

In order to determine where women receive the most equal treatment in the U.S., the personal-finance website WalletHub compared the 50 states across three key dimensions -- workplace environment, education and health, and political empowerment -- using 17 relevant metrics.

The data set ranges from the gap between female and male executives to the disparity in unemployment rates for women and men.
