The so called ``PAY GAP``
You’re probably asking what a “Pay Gap” is well, you’re about to figure out something I find madly insane, the difference between the amount of money paid to a women and her opposite gender, for doing the absolute same job. The sort of task can be as simple as a waitress or waiter or as effortful as a lawyer or surgeon. I’m going to compare this situation to the following that I heard of online and which captured my attention and hopefully yours too," taking a dump on someone’s table”. Would the size of the dump be the issue or the fact that there is currently dump on your belongings? This pile of dump may be 4 inches, 8 inches”----- or simply “2 inches high” that’s almost seems like you haven’t taken a dump at all!!!!”I was being sarcastic there. I hope you got the point.
Moving on, this concern mostly feasts eyes on the United States which according to CNN a website I’ve done some research on, women candidates receive 64% on the dollar a man makes. This problem isn’t getting any better, not only do they not get paid ¾ of what a man receives but the answer to this Is simply because of women’s choice of having children, this is in line with a “completely valid reason” to why not pay females equally. It was NEVER a women’s choice to give birth in any circumstances, this was always a natural thing among women. I`m pretty sure that a women going through the hardest most painful time of her life (giving birth) wouldn't do such thing if there was another way around that, but there isn't any other way!!!!!
This following paragraph will be about my personal ideology on how anyone no matter what gender, color, race, religion and their appearances should be paid. I cannot stand the tiniest comparison made in this problem, consider you have two nice Hollister sweaters, they are absolutely the same size, color and design, this sweater is unisex but on the guys section its 40% cheaper!!!!!!! WHY is that you may ask yourself? Is it because one is made for a male and the other for a female, is this deal sexist against a female or should be totally ignored???
Or even look at it this way, I heard this during a TV show called “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” where a study at a university, the professors were given two resumes identical one to the other except for the names of those who are applying for the same job, in this case you have “Andrew and Andria “you might be surprised but the male was classified more preferable more than the female. Like John Oliver mentioned women should change their names, in this case to Andrew if that’s going to get them a job more easily. This situations is a completely ignorant to all women, females are as smart as males, something that completely shocked me was the fact that both resumes were identical excluding the name, honestly ((SMH)) ----- smack my head!!!!!!!!
I would like to conclude that no matter what the gender you are, it doesn’t define the amount of money you earn, if two people with the same level of education and even experiences work for the equivalent number of hours, both of their paychecks should be identical, dollar by dollar and cent by cent.
I hope my message went through, thank you for your time and if you guys ever have any thoughts or comments about my post let me know at http://feminismvision.blogspot.ca/.

Hey Emily! I love the new design you've created for your blog! Super fresh! Anyway, I find it very important that the gender pay gap be closed. What are employers doing to resolve this issue? Nothing? What can regular citizens like you and I do to help, especially as this is something that largely concerns us? Great blog post, I'm looking forward to your next one!
ReplyDeleteHey Camilia, I totally agree with you on your comment about the fact that employers are doing nothing consisting this issue, but you know what, I was very surprised to know that many people have no idea that pay gaps actually exist, I had a friend tell me about this at school, social media doesn’t really pay attention or spread the word about the inequality in such situation, they mostly focus on how big Kylie Jenner’s lip injection, like no offence to anyone but nobody cares about how big your pie hole can get!! Again sorry if that offended anyone, but I am very frustrated on what our society focuses’ on. Thank you for your comment, can’t wait to inform you more on this subject.
DeleteHey Emily, your blog looks super cool and i think the designe works very well with your topic. Im happy you`re doing a topic that so relevent in todays news. I cant wait to read more and gather more insights on your opinion. Good luck with the rest of your blog!
ReplyDeleteHey Allison thank you so much, your comment was very kind, and yes it is a topic that is very relevant in today's news a lot of discrimination and problems are concurrently happening, us girls, women and also male gender need to stand up to any racism and inequality in existence in our society, once again your comment is very helpful and if you have a specific topic you would like me to talk about message me at eabduemil@cscprovience.ca, Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHey Emily! Your Blog design looks amazing! Super chic.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you why someone should be denied a job opportunity or equally pay simply for the gender.
Did you also see the cost of woman products compared to men? For example the razor, for a woman to buy a razor in the woman’s department it more expensive than one for men pay cheaper for their razor. That absolutely ridiculous
