Gender Discrimination In Society

Bebop is a style of jazz that was developed in the early to mid-1940s in the United States. Bebop was developed during the 1940’s and is one of the most artistic styles of jazz music. The word Bebop focused more of the freedom of creativity rather than rhythmic aspects. The word bebop is an onomatopoeic of a staccato two-tone phrase distinctive in this kind of music. Bebop also gave soloists more room for improvisation. Bebop differs from the composition of the swing era and is characterized by fast tempos, asymmetrical phrasing, intricate melodies, and rhythm sections that expand on their role as tempo-keepers. It appeared to sound racing, nervous, erratic, and fragmented. To jazz musicians and music lovers, bebop was a beautiful revolution in the art of jazz.

Being a citizen of the United States is a luxury that many Americans take for granted. Many of the illegal immigrants come to America where they hope to obtain the freedom that is not given in their country. There is a serious problem with the immigration policy: it is very difficult for immigrants to become an actual U.S. citizen. If the policy were to be readjusted, and the length of time the immigrant has to live in the United States before they can become a citizen were to be shortened, illegal immigration could be slowed or even stopped.

Sexism has been a problem since the existence of man and woman. It brings on the controversial issue of men and women, and how they are not considered equal in society. There are many different perspectives on sexism and whether or not it still exists. Feminist writers such as Daly, Frye, and Millett all stress the way in which women have been subject to the power of men and how the female self is ‘invaded’ by patriarchal conditioning. Frye, in particular, has a strong opinion on the issue. As Jean Grimshaw states in her article, Autonomy and Identity in Feminist Thinking, “Frye sees women as simply ‘broken’ and then ‘remade’ in the way that suits their masters.”

Gender discrimination is an acute and persistent problem, especially in developing countries. This paper argues that gender discrimination is an inefficient practice.

Sexism is the prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination on the basis of sex. Sexism is regarded mostly towards women. Sexism affects everyone but not effecting everyone evenly. For women, they suffer from sexism socially, educational, political, religious, social, etc. The idea of sexism is that the men have more power than the women. Women get judged differently than men do. Women get judged in the workplace which limits them to certain jobs. The stereotypes that women are under are unbelievable. Some stereotypes like women are bad drivers, women are bad at leadership, and that all women are good at cooking. I believe that sexism causes a break in our society that divides the two sexes apart from each other. Throughout St. John’s Prep, sexism is present with the female teachers. The workplace for women differs greatly from men. The Catholic Social teaching theme of community stands out most dominantly in the topic of sexism. Sexism effects women everyday in their life. They encounter obstacles that men don’t ever have to worry about. Throughout the idea of sexism, one must remember that the Catholic Social theme of community goes a long way in understanding that we are all equal in one body.

In the age of advanced technology, the media is one of the most reliable sources of information. However that source cannot always be trusted; it can be used as a device to brainwash or influence our society. The media are used to control of what we should see and believe while leaving out the rest of the story; which caused stereotypes of other races and genders. We are facing two of the most sensitive controversies of our advanced society: racism and sexism, which were made even worse by the stereotypes created by the mass media. American people should educate themselves to prevent the further spreading of racism and sexism through stereotype.

1. Even though America has come a long way in equality, the race for job equality is not fulfilled quite yet. 2Accoring to Neil Kokemuller, an active business man, men accurately make 77 cents more to the dollar than women who have the exact same job. (2016) 3. “The average American man makes 70-80% more money, doing the exact same jobs as the American woman.”(regender.org 2015) 4. This incredible jump in pay also influences the idea that the majority of women in America are living in poverty. 5According to Stephanie Cholensky, “The United states currently ranks 65th in pay equality.”(Cholensky, 2015) 6 Women who work just as hard as men but do not get payed the amount is a prime example of gender discrimination. 7Maybe women wouldn’t be so

There are many types of discrimination in our society today. The one that really stands out to a lot of people, but seems to just slide by is discrimination against women. Many people will say that they are not discriminative against women, but there actions in the workplace and at social events would suggest otherwise. Back around 40-50 years ago, our country had a certain view of what women are as people, and what they were supposed and meant to do. A famous essay that I personally like is, “I want a Wife,” by Judy Brady.

As stated in the oxford dictionary a stereotype is ‘a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing’. Stereotyping is a normal, automated aspect to our thinking process and hence is a vast implication to our outlook on society. Stereotyping is a widely observed Psychological topic and it has been suggested that sex, race and age are the most prevalent aspects to stereotyping (Mackie, Hamilton, Sussking and Rosselli,1996.) Therefore discussing all areas and aspects is far beyond the scope of this essay, hence I will be focusing on sexism and present the explanations surrounding this prejudice and discrimination.

Gender discrimination in the United States are not tolerated. There are movements and group that helps the society fight gender discrimination. In today’s era, women are treated more equally to men compare to the past few decades. Although, until today there are still cases of gender discrimination.

First, every man, woman, and child should receive the same rights. None of these rights should be affected by skin tone, gender, religion, sexuality, or ethnicity. All citizens are eligible to obtain property, no matter their title or skin tone. Every person of the United States has freedom of speech, religion, and freedom of the press. If a citizen wishes to speak their mind on politics, or religion, they may do so without being prosecuted. Women receive the same wages as men and are eligible for any job offered. A woman works just as hard as a man and therefore should earn as much as he does. Secondly, women control their bodies, and others have no opinions in what they do. Discrimination upon minorities will not be tolerated and

Gender bias, also known as sexism, is a full of attitudes, laws, taboos, preferences, and behaviors that differentiates and discriminates against either sex. These may be a position of which male dominance and female subjugation in the modern society. It could also be a form of sexual stereotypes between men and women, these are commonly experienced in employment versus other positions. A final place that discrimination is faced is the academic environment, the female to male ratios are not in sync in certain programs and courses because of this and it is pressuring men and women to not go into certain fields and do what they love and please. Most advertisements on Television, magazines, newspapers, online ad’s, use a charged sexually image with a female as the star. Women are to be a pleasure for men, and nothing else. Many people have different opinions on genders and sexuality and that is okay, but sometimes you just need to keep them to yourselves.

Our social justice issue is gender discrimination. Gender Discrimination is a major thing going on in our world today. Therefore, gender discrimination happens in things such as sports, education, health, employment, laws, and in different countries. Gender discrimination was a major thing in the past, and is still a major thing today. Men continually think women are weak, and so women are targeted more in crimes. They also think that women won't stand up for themselves, and women continually let men bring them down because they aren't brave enough. In jobs they believe women won't work, and that women aren't capable enough to do the job, so women end up getting paid less or have to work ridiculously short hours. Today in our century, women are targeted more than men because they are considered weak. Being labeled weak makes women are more vulnerable to at least one form of abuse. 1 in 3 women are abused in some form at a time of their life by a man. Women are targeted for crimes, such as home break-ins, because if they live on their own, they are thought to not be able to defend themselves that well. Women are also being killed all the time. In India, women are burned to death if they can't meet financial requirements, while men aren't. In Egypt, women are killed if they do something considered unclean in their family or outside their family. In South Asia more than 2 million baby girls are killed or abandoned to die because they are considered a financial burden to the

Gender Discrimination is a type of discrimination where basing on a particular person’s gender (or) sex a person is discriminated, majorly this type of discrimination is faced by women and girls.
