Y the Last Man

From the 1900’s to 2016, a lot has changed for women. We are still expected as the main caregiver and many people still do stay at home while the man works but for many that is not the “ideal” thing. One common current event that shows that is our political issues. We currently have a woman running for president that is very close to being elected in November. Back in the 1900’s, this would have never of been possible to achieve and was not even allowed. This shows how much has changed in this little amount of time allowing women to achieve bigger things then we were allowed

Some people may argue that the government should not be involved in food waste management because they ironically are already wasting thousands of pounds of food and money trying to prevent food waste from happening. In “Rules Won’t Do Much Good” by Gregory Conko, he argues the pointlessness of government involvement because the government spends money making sure food production sites are clean and sanitary, yet they still recall large amounts of food because of “unsanitary working conditions” or “improper procedure” (Conko). Some people find irony in the government getting involved with food management, when the rules and regulations they implement aren’t doing any good by preventing food waste from occurring. While Conko and other critics

Another demographic change we are seeing in the labor force today are changes in the men to women ratio. According to the United States Department of Labor, in 1970 women only made around 37% of the working population, leaving men to make up the additional 63% (Women in the Labor Force, 2012). By 2012, women accounted for 47% of the total working population. Although this may not seem like a large increase from 1970, women did account for more than half of all laborers within several of the industry sectors including; financial activities (53%), education and health services (75%), leisure and hospitality (51%), and other services (52%). However, when looking at jobs in the agricultural, construction, mining, manufacturing, and transportation and utilities fields, women are still significantly underrepresented. Over the years we have seen not only the percentage of women in the labor force grow, but the large pay gap between men and women has slowly began to close. As of 2012, women with full time jobs

What external threats to your company's future well-being and profitability do you and your co-managers see?

Gender and health are most likely the most noticeable social changes since the Second World War. Since the Second World War women role in society has changed massively. Women are seen more equally now in most societies and private sphere of their families. An example of this is more woman now carry on in full-time work after marriage and having children, also they are taking more of an outstanding role within their communities and public life. Even though these changes have been made there is evidence to show that there are still inequalities still exist between men

“If one compares a woman in 1900 with her counterpart in 2000, the gains have been significant. There were the obvious changes, such as the right to vote and other governmental policies supporting women in the 1960s and 1970s. The results were women successfully engaging in certain jobs for the first time. Where women were once a minority, or excluded entirely, by 1980, they accounted for more than half of all undergraduate students”,

During WW2 the presence of men at home was to a bare minimum. The impact this had on women was felt throughout the nation. How women would be looked at would be changed forever. They had to uphold various positions that were usually held by men and reevaluate their roles as homemakers. Their lives at home had changed; they were no longer the primary care giver. They also joined different parts of the military. Due to men being away at war during WW2 women were forced to participate in the workforce, which would change their view of their position in society.

Actresses became more popular in the entertainment industry, business jobs that once solely belonged to men were now an option to women, along with many other careers. So, instead of being restricted to the home, women now found jobs outside, but men still gained the benefits, such as getting paid more for the same job, showed to be completely unfair. Also, women began to speculate in the Wall Street stock market. As women gained jobs, the

In 1920, women won the right to vote and they were gradually moving into the male-dominated labor force, but gender roles were not changing much. Due to the World War II draft, many women entered the labor force and even helped run the country. Upon the return of the veterans, many women were forced back into their homes. However, the opportunities for women were broadening and some women began making careers for themselves outside of the home. The 1960’s saw many feminist movements and in 1963 the Equal Pay Act was passed by Congress which enticed more women to get out of the house and into better careers.

    Since all these changes happened back then it let women of the 21st century have options to do what they want. Now we attend school longer, we get the same education as

As soon as more domestic and family work is allocated to men then women will be able to attain equal pay. Women, with less work at home, will be able to commit to full time jobs, have to leave the workforce less, take less leave, and be able to climb the corporate ladder just as men are today.

Instead of experiencing intimate relationships women are taking care of children and working. Women are getting paid less even when working the same hours as men. Instead of women living a full and experienced life they are isolating themselves to just family and work when living in poverty. The role expectations of women cause, stress, anger, anxiety and helplessness. According to the Fact Sheet: Women &Socioeconomic Status women are more likely to be diagnosed with depression and anxiety orders living below the poverty

I have read many articles and writings about the gender inequality issue and social mobility, I have found a mix of expected and unexpected things. I used to think that women were breaking out of traditional gender roles and moving up the social ladder, which is happening but the numbers are still growing rather slowly. Men are still dominant in most power positions, although some women have taken over these positions. Although our fight for equality is growing, it isn't growing as rapidly as I hoped and expected.

Now women share an equal role in businesses and work outside of just maintaining a clean house. Now that women can earn just as much money as men they don’t have to rely on anyone to bring, so they can separate from their significant others a lot easier.

Gender roles have been changing throughout the centuries with both men and women. The most and drastic change has occurred in our 21st century to women. Women are now viewed as equals in the work and home, they are able to achieve just as much as men and no longer have limits suppressing them. There have been limits put on women since the beginning of time, women were to attend to the house and children but never other responsibilities beyond that. This change in gender roles has shaped our society in numerous ways making new jobs for women and breaking through social norms. Throughout history the role of women has dramatically changed, first with women being primary caregivers and up keepers of the house to women being able to have their own careers and lastly to being equal to men and no longer being inferior to them.
