Everyday sexism and gender bias negatively impact women in the workplace, social life, and motherhood. Women are often mistaken for lower level roles, paid less than men for the same work, and face barriers to career advancement. Cultural stereotypes also place unfair expectations on women regarding their appearance and ability to juggle domestic responsibilities. The document traces these issues back centuries, noting that women have historically been subordinate to men and denied equal opportunities, respect and credit afforded their male counterparts.

1. Are Women Equal to Men?

2. Everyday forms of sexism appears without us women knowing about it at the workplace , events ,
even in our social life.
EXAMPLES
Being mistaken for a lower rank or a secretary
*Often women are mistaken for a job of no integrity or no paramount
position.
Being asked if a man is available *Which is insulting our intelligence by saying we arent’ smart
enough or useful in what is being asked.
Not being given the right amount of credit for keeping up a household , giving birth
, and providing for a family by themselves.
Often women are inferior to seen women
especially for her ability to do such jobs and
buying expensive items.
Everyday sexism

3. LOWER PAY
Women having lower pay has been an ongoing debate for a long time
> Whether its 10 cent or 100 dollars it is still unfair that men get more pay than
women doing the exact job and position.
*Even though the percentages
are small it still counts and and
makes a difference when it all
adds up

4. Less Opportunities and Credits
These are the following effects of women bias or gender bias:
● A 1996 researcher found that women are immodestly or their
accomplishments aren’t spoken of.
● Men believe that working is a man’s job, so therefore, women aren’t hard-
workers, don’t know how to compete for what they want, or even smart
enough to understand how to work.
● Men think that it is okay that women can be interrupted just so that the
men could get “the stage.”

5. Motherhood Problems
These are some of effects of men leaving women with motherhood problems:
● Some women have to struggle with the fact that they have to support their
child by leaving school and having to find a job to support their child.
● It states that there is 73% of men and 63% of women in the united states
alone who get pregnant and, or have sexual intercourse before the age of
18, and that in most cases men always leave the teen-mother to figure out
what to do by herself.
● Nearly 750,000 teens became pregnant in the United States in 2002. This
resulted in approximately 425,000 births, 215,000 abortions and 110,000
miscarriages. This resulted because they had to face it alone.

6. Women Appearance
Women think that they need to dress a type of way to get someones attention. But that only brings
your confidence in what you can achieve to a low level. Women should dress in an appropriate fashion
for you to feel good about yourself and not to get a promotion from your boss.

7. When did this start?
“ the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in
sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband,
and he shall rule over thee.”
This shows that this started many centuries ago.
Does anyone have any comments on this quote?

8. Women are often placed under stereotype where they are misjudged and taken for less than what they are
worth.
★ Despite a woman's educational background she is most likely going to be payed less the a
male who is doing the same job.
★ This issue is called gender wage pay, this issue affects women of all ages, race and
educational backgrounds
★ Women academics whose degrees were awarded between 1985 and
1900 earned 92 percent of men's salaries.
In 2013, female full-time workers made only 78
cents for every dollar earned by men, a gender wage
gap of 22 percent.
★ The most recent female graduate start out on a roughly
equal salary footing with their male counter parts, but are
likely to lose that equality as early as three years after
earning their Ph.D’s
Does educational background differ from
women and men?

9. ★ In the early 1920’s when women earned the right to vote, this was a beginning to women's voices.
★ Women running in a political campaign do not get the same respect as a male would in terms of publicly.
★ For example when Hillary Clinton was running for
president many people were saying that if she was running for
president she would not be able to handle war because she was
a woman as opposed to obama who was running for president at
the time.
Does a woman’s voice matter less than
a man’s?
