Discrimination
Discrimination have a big factor in our lives. It can makes one life miserable or very happy depending on were you stand. In today's society, there is discrimination in school, at home, at work places etc. Most of the time, women are discriminated against.In work places, men and women may do the same type of work but they will each get different types of pay. The difference in the amount companies pay men and women are huge. Women can get an average pay of $25.08 per hour while men can do the exact same job with the same qualifications for $29.66. A person might think that it does not happen in Hollywood or among celebrities. In reality, this problem is everywhere. It Also happen among different races as well . Caucasians are more likely to receive more pay than African Americans or any other minorities such as Hispanics, Asians etc.The pay difference have decreased over the years but it still is large. At homes in many cultures, women do not have a say in what goes on around the house because it is believed that the men are the boss of the house. Women basically follow everything that they are being told by their husbands. Not long ago, i was able to watch " Wife Swap" and in that episode, the women had to listen to her husband, sons and even dog. She said that she has no say and all the men in the house are superior than she is. If the husband is not home, then the son is in charge of the house and the son is no there, the dog is. Finally if none of these people are not home, then she is in charge of the house. This might not be how many households run but there are some rules or roles that is in effect in that household.
