If you look back on professions, when they became undervalued and paid less, women tended to do better in them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Because there still exists a significant pay gap, women tend to earn less than men over the course of their lifetimes. Compounding the problem, women tend to spend less time in the workforce than men.
Around me I saw women overworked and underpaid, doing men's work at half men's wages, not because their work was inferior, but because they were women.
Why do women get paid less money? It doesn't make any sense.
Women are often paid far less than men, while they also perform most of the world's unpaid care work.
A lot of professions happen to be male-dominated because women drop out at a certain point. It's unfortunate.
Most women are not programmed to prefer a great career to a great man and a family. They feel they were sold a bill of goods at college and by the media.
We have a large pool of talented and educated women, and yet workplaces haven't necessarily changed to accommodate the reality of their lives.
There are less opportunities for women.
Women, on average, earn less than men in almost every occupation, including traditional female orientated jobs like nursing and teaching.
Women face enough pressures and challenges in a workplace that is still depressingly biased against a female's success. Add to that, the fact that the very thing many women I know find most rewarding (having kids) is now frowned upon.
