What Is The Main Issue

I think the main issue is men's superiority complex. They want to be the ones who have supremacy, who can do more things and they think everyone except them has to serve them. Of course, I'm not talking about all men still, if we look at general the situation is like that. Gender discrimination is like a tradition that goes from dad to son. Women can't go to schools they can't work they can't do anything that would make them happy because they are women so they are weak, someone has to protect them otherwise they can not survive. At that point, men think they have to take over the role of the hero then they decide everything for women near them. It is called the male ego. In our daily lives, we face that ego a lot even though we didn't notice. A major example of the male ego that we are subjected to every day can be ''mansplaining''. You may not know the exact definition of mansplaining but don't worry about that because in my next blog post I will be talking about that in detail.

Gender Inequality In Workplace

 Just like everywhere, workplaces are inequal areas, especially for women. There are a lot of reasons why but some crucial points lead to the cause and, in this blog post, we will be focusing on them. These are  mainly like that;  1) Unequal Pay According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, women earn 49 cents compared to every $1 men earn, even though they have the same hours of labor. It still may not seem like a dangerous issue to you but the idea behind this action is directly the thought of women being inferior to men so they should get paid less. A 2011 study by the British CMI concluded that, if pay growth continues for female executives at current rates, the gap between the earnings of female and male executives would not be closed until 2109. That means if things don't change women will be treated inequal for nearly 88 more years.   2) Sexual Harassment  Unfortunately, women are not safe even in their workplace. Researches show that 54 pe...

Gender Inequality In Education

 Education is a vital thing in the modern world. Yet, not everyone has the chance to receive an education. There are various reasons why it is like that but, I want to touch on gender-related reasons on today's blog.  Girls all around the world are exposing to discrimination in education because of sexism. Especially in patriarchal societies, parents don't let their daughters go to school. If we look worldwide, we will see that 132 million girls are out of school. Most of them are at home, cooking and cleaning for their families just like they programmed for it. Some of them are even forced to marry and serve their husbands. From my point of view, it is the sickest part of gender discrimination. Needless to say but still, just for your information, child brides are almost always forced to drop out of school. Just like them, some of the girls are forced to drop out of school but at the same time, some can't even go to school ever so they can't read or write. I want to gi...
