In Islam, strictly speaking, a man can divorce his wife by doing the above stated, whereas a woman has to ask her husband for one, and he must agree for it to go ahead.

This might sound sexist, but is more a technicality of the culture, it's highly irregular for a man to refuse this request, even frowned on.
