However, everyone has their own opinion to what is considered “equal”. Women have had to overcome challenges that shouldn’t have been a challenge to begin with.

Nowadays it’s hard to impress someone with inequality issues, we all aware of the existing of discrimination by racial, economic, gender, age factors, etc. Even in our seemingly progress society with its freedom of speech and equal rights, there is persistent disproportion in power distribution. One group of people always have some advantages over another. White over black, 1% over 99%, men over women. The latter is particularly disturbing since it’s so ubiquitous and really calls the essence of such order, that men power for most of us is unquestionable innate characteristic. Why even bother to doubt men dominance since it’s been this way for generations, in almost every known society and civilization. The surrounding environment helps us

This journal reflects on the changes and transition women have taken today. Before the 1960 women life’s had been difficult from the denied of basic right, discrimination in the workplace and a live trap in household duty and bondage. Their main responsibilities were the upliftment of the household, providing support for their children and their husband; who was also considered the main provider. Society and strong cultural believe determine the roles of women and the impact they have on our society “girls are to be girls” and “boys are to be boys”the stereotypes, gender, that firmly believe that certain work or privilege were considered masculine work or male job.

In an attempt to eliminate stereotypes, women have fought and made a place for themselves in a ¨man’s world¨ only to find themselves living a double life. Women have a harder time than males living up to society’s stereotypes. Media and social pressure have caused women to fill, not only traditional female roles, but expectations of society. Women are expected to be feminine and proper while also being able to maintain a steady job, On the other hand, men have been relieved of most of the hunting and gathering stereotypes and the pressure is on them to allow women to fill their traditional roles. The new stereotype of a woman is a feminine traditional male.

Contemporary popular culture influences the general publics perception of gender and family in modern society, this gives the filmmakers and show runners and incredibly powerful and socially responsible position.

Unfortunately to many people of color, women, and those who identify as non-binary, this responsibility is not met.

In the early 21st century, women’s activist groups have been becoming a more and more prominent sight in modern day society, but whilst nowadays, they are common sight, prior to the 20th century, it was impossible for women to vote or run for office in Canada, as well as many other countries (Stoddart, 2016). Knowing this, it raises the question, why were women fine with such standards for 1900 years? The answer to this question revolves around social conventions.

#1. After reading chapter one of the text book the thing that I came away with that surprised me the most was the information about the races listed on the United States Census survey. Even though I have filled out two of them in my nearly 40 years of life it never clicked that there were so few options to pick from. Working with the public has me interacting with people of innumerable racial backgrounds; for example, in a few years when the 2020 Census goes out to the, for example, numerous Indian-American (India born not American Indians) who frequent my place of business will have to select from, as the book says: “The US Census Bureau identifies five races: White, Black, Asian, American Indian, or Native Hawaiian” (Diversity and the College

In popular culture today, stay-at-home moms are seen as lazy, uneducated women who rather change a child’s diaper than be out in the working field. A famous line most people ask women before they go to college is if they are going to get their degree in “MRS.”, meaning they will only marry and stay home with children.

We see it all the time in newspapers and magazines, ink and paper is the safest way to say something that not everyone will want to hear. Writing is a tool that many famous authors use to paint a bigger picture and shed light on some major issues. One of these major issues is the stereotyping of women.

I agree with your opinion that women of this era are stronger and more independent. While the old stereotypes of women describe them with the trait of delicacy and dependence, women of this generation are smart and hard-working to achieve their goals. Actually, women have done very well in many fields, which is revealed in the website womensportreport.com. On the other hand, your statements, “Women athletics appear in these articles with radiant faces and happy smile. Although they don’t need to do make ups or wear fashion clothes, they look healthy and elegant with full of energy and confidence” manifest a very significant concept that women should not be judged by their appearance, nor should they gain acceptance by pleasing men’s desire,

Fashion week may sometimes be the most important time of the year for “fashionistas”. It's important to look at the latest fashions, what is in and what is not, who designed a piece of clothing with what material, and how it would look incorporated into a certain outfit. However, less fortunate people are worried about less materialistic things, such as where their next meal will come from, where they will sleep, and how they will keep warm, and that's just a few of their worries.

Stereotypes and gender roles are still causing unfavourable perceptions in many career fields in the 21st century, with nursing being one of those professions. First and foremost, gender roles between female and male are still being made distinctive in nursing especially in the relation with the role being viewed as a feminine career.
