GENDER INEQUALITY BY RAQUEL ALVAR FROM 2ND BCSS

IN WHAT WAYS DOES GENDER INEQUALITY PERSIST AT PRESENT IN YOUR SOCIETY?

We live in a patriarchal state. This is a fact. If we look around us, we can observe in our society facts that prove it.

First of all, the average annual salary of a woman is 22% lower than that of a man, a good example of gender inequality. Secondly, women only occupy less than 30% of managerial positions, and it is a reality that, the higher we look, the fewer jobs women occupy.

Finally, I would like to ask a question. Is it possible that women are less capable than men? The answer is, undoubtely false. It is proven that women are as capable as men. If we all put ourselves on our side, the feminist struggle would be bigger and soon we would live in a society that is equal for all of us, as we are all human beings with the same rights.
