Gender Inequality


I believe there as always been a gender inequality when it comes to many different aspects in life. In my opinion men has always been the superior one. In many cases men can do certain things that women can not. For example if a woman was to wear something that is revealing and a man stares, she instantly gets called something derogatory when it's actually the man's fault for staring.Also men will typically make more money than women even if she is more qualified. For example a woman who made straight As in school will be paid less than a man who made Cs. Society often looks at men as the the person who brings everything to table as far as finances and being the "head" of the household. I feel as if woman can work as hard as a man sometimes harder.  In my opinion, women are faced with so much and are expected to do so much,but women are not appreciated for what they do. .Since the earliest times, women has always been looked at as the person who sits home and their goes through unpleasant changes in order to have children, care for the children, clean the house, as well meet the husband's needs while being submissive.

  1. It saddens me to see that women aren't being treated equally in society. It takes a lot for a WOMAN to go to school, graduate, find a decent job, get married, have kids, expect to look a certain way, uphold her dignity and respect to others. With all this she still is seen as just a woman. Not a hard working, go-getter, but a just another woman in society. Most men do make more money than women, why is that? Simply because he's a man? If you answered yes, I feel like it's time to change that answer. We should no longer answer the question by saying just because he's a man. The answer should be because he has more qualifications or he has a higher degree or more experience. We should treat all sexes the same. Being treated equally is apart of our rights as Americans, yet still woman are continuing to fight for equality in all aspects life in the USA.

  2. We as women do not seek to be seen as men, but to be seen as an individual. If we work hard, why can we not get what we have earned? Being a woman doesn't mean weakness. Generally speaking we are more emotional than men, but we are not less than men because of that. We are in the 21st century, and this type of discrimination shouldn't even exist.
