Gender Equality And Gender Discrimination

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.”

The fight women’s rights and equality has been an ongoing theme throughout history. Much like racism, sexism limits a person based on a physicality they cannot control. Its uncivilized and brings a huge uproar and controversy in its path. For years there has been groups and protests to change the course of sexism and change it for the better. Admittedly, it has improved, but as a society we are far from equality.

One of article of “ Psychology Today” in 2016 were come to social problem on racism, sexism and discrimination. In the article, the good news is that we can make great progress in minimizing these undesirable qualities in people. The bad news is that we may cause unnecessary friction and misunderstanding. For example of bad influence, play a word test for a moment. There is one guy said: “ Whites, Blacks, Latinos”. First thing that comes to your mind maybe is rich, poor and uneducated.

Gender diversity and gender discrimination in the tech industry is a highly discussed topic among the human resources field. Many women continuously feel underrepresented in the field of tech and find that it is hard to obtain top management positions. This is due to the many problems that women face while trying to pursue these positions. These problems include overcoming the glass ceiling, dealing with sexual harassment in the workplace, and women being placed into gender stereotypes.

Women in the world still face discrimination and gender equality takes action to achieve women’s rights. AAUW provides and gives women the chance to have an education, while Catalyst reaches out to women to carry out equal pay, equal participation in the workplace, and remove discrimination. UN Women attains to human rights for women. Throughout history women have fought for gender equality in the workplace and in education, and every year organizations like AAUW, Catalyst, and UN Women have gotten closer to balancing equality.

In the summer of 2014, 40 of the top female soccer players in the world announced that they are taking a stand against FIFA and the CSA (Canadian Soccer Association), stating that they are prepared to file a lawsuit against the companies. The tension throughout this lawsuit has been building for many years now. At the heart of the argument is the fact that next year’s women’s world cup is planned to take place on artificial turf instead of real grass. (McIntyre 2014). Gender inequality/discrimination is to deny equal rights to one group of people based on their gender. (Bonvillain and Miller 2013: 42). Based on this definition, the women have a very solid case. Forcing the female players to play on the turf field, while the men play on real grass that costs more to uphold and take care of, is treating them inadequately and less important* than the male soccer players. Continuing the trend in our society of male dominance.

Throughout the past few decades, the gender inequality discourse have became a dominant feature of international, national and local policy debate on the subject of economic development. This policy concern has emerged as an area of scholarly research which seeks to show that improving gender equity leads to economic growth.

Malala Yousafzai once said, “When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.” Imagine being told that you can not get the new iPhone but your friend can. This is like the same for women who want to go to school but are not allowed to. In many situations, women are restricted to certain opportunities. Whether it may be through political aspects or job opportunities. In many countries women are not allowed to go to school. This being said, gender equality is an issue that our world has been facing for many years. Women need to have the same equal rights of going to school because education is the foundation of human lives. If women do not get the proper education, more than half our world would be in poverty, have more child marriages, and have poor health care .

For many years now, the question of gender equality has been one of the most controversial issues in several societies. Different regions have put the effort in ensuring women get as equal chances as their counterpart gender, whereas some of the areas in the world have completely shunned the issue. Back then, women were considered property and were not allowed equal rights as men especially when it comes to education, job opportunities among several other issues. The United States has put in place various policies that enable females to have equal opportunities as men. The country has tried to make an effort to ensure equality of resources and opportunities regardless of one’s gender. Nonetheless, most areas have not fully embraced the fact that men and women are equal. In fact, some bosses disqualify applicants of jobs on the basis of gender. To date, women are still discriminated against on several issues. This discussion entails a few examples of discrimination against women. With each problem, it shall attempt to provide a solution to each problem.

The annual salary difference between men and women is $10,086. Imagine all the things women can do with $10,086. Discrimination against women starts at birth. Women are born into a world full of stereotypes, and women are constantly having to prove themselves. Gender wage gap has been an issue for as long as women have worked outside the home. This idea roots from systemic discrimination; too many people believe that the male is the prime provider, and the woman's role is to stay at home with the children. It is the twenty-first century now, and women are thriving more than ever.

In American History, Women's rights and inequality has encountered the hardship of legal and social discrimination.  Women consistently battle against horizontal segregation, the separation of women and men into gender specific jobs. Despite a strong woman's presence in today's workplace, women are still facing challenges such as gender discrimination and sexual harassment. Many would argue that woman is no longer discriminated against, however, woman often face sexual harassment more often than a male. This is solely based on the fact that a woman, is still looked upon as needed to be a house wife. Men and sometimes women, find it hard to respect a superior woman. This could be considered as a leading contributory to sexual misconduct in the workplace. Which has caused far too many recent cases being filed against men of higher grounds. Today most women are afraid to reach higher and grab that job of which is considered to be for men. Are men facing challenges with discrimination and inequality?

Race, gender, and class have always been prevalent in society since the beginning of time. The concept of superiority stems from these features that define human beings and thus, leads to a struggle of power and oppression. Slavery, antisemitism, and prejudice are some of many examples that have been derived from this concept of superiority. The readings posted for this critical assessment speak heavily on the natures and stereotypes that are based around the black and white males. The juxtaposition of violence and masculinity that plays a role in the lives of men resonates soundly with me and begs to ask the question “with such parallels among black and white people, why are the repercussions they face so different?”

A moment appearance happens when a man is oppressed on the same event however in two diverse ways. (4)For instance, a gay lady may guarantee that she has been subject to harassment both in light of the fact that she is a lady and on the grounds that she is gay. Such separation can be said to be 'added substance', in that each kind of separation can be demonstrated freely. For the reasons for this report, this kind of segregation will be called 'added substance various separation.' The third appearance is, in any case, of an alternate request in that segregation does not just comprise in the expansion of two wellsprings of separation; the outcome is subjectively extraordinary. For case, black ladies may encounter segregation in a way which is subjectively not quite the same as either white ladies or black men. (4)Black women share a few encounters in the same manner as both white ladies, what's more, black men, however, they additionally contrast in critical regards. Therefore while white ladies might be the casualties of sex segregation, they may likewise be the recipients and even the culprits of prejudice. Then again, black men may encounter prejudice yet be the recipients and culprits of sexism. It is this sort of segregation which is the subject of this topical report. It is generally alluded to as 'intersectional discrimination’. The degree of intersectional detriment in the EU is hard to gage in view of the absence of complete information reflecting intersectional

The gender gap should be vanished. It gives inequality against women and men. It make woman feel less than man in the work place for it gives them to many obstacles .others think it’s not an important issue to talk about because they do want a change they want to stay how it has been for decades. They think that it should stay like that because it was meant to be like that. I believe there should be a change woman should fight for their right that belongs to them. Women are capable of being what they want if they have the desire and the willingness to fight for it. Therefore, it is important to close this gender gap for equality for man and woman in their education, their employment, and even their government.

Gender discrimination against women is out of control across the world and seeps into many aspects of women 's lives. This discrimination harms women in two ways. First, women directly experience stressful events. The experience of sexism is so common that some research suggests women can experience one to two instances of everyday sexism. But women aren 't only harmed by sexism through the physical stress caused by others. They are harmed to the extent that they internalize and adopt these sexist attitudes that can manifest as poor self-concept. This negative self-concept often obvious on a subconscious level, as women and men will demonstrate automatic negative biases against women (Ferguson, 2013).
