perception of women in the American culture instead of merely aiming for obtaining equality. The lack of women in leadership hints that perhaps only men are fit to lead and women are only to follow. Even at a very young age, girls are called “bossy” (Sheryl Sandberg) when they enact any sort of executive decision. However, when boys demonstrate the same quality, they are praised…

In 1954, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act established that it was unconstitutional to discriminate based on sex, race, color or religion (Dworkin 29). However, women are still faced with injustices in the work world. It is often difficult for women to receive promotions as compared to men. The objective of my research is to assess the ongoing problem of women’s lower status and pay…

This is a common occurrence because discrimination is one of the biggest problems that society faces today and has for centuries. It comes in all forms but the most prevalent form is sexual discrimination amongst men and women in the workplace.

2. I do think that Hannah Rosin is correct about the end of the dominance of men in hookup culture, pharmacy, the middle class, marriages, and in the classroom. However, many of these realms of the decline of men were not topics of this course. We did discuss gender and education, and I would argue that Rosin is right about the end of men in education, as women have surpassed men at almost all levels. The statistics are striking.
