Why Do Ladies Earn Less On The Job Compared With What Men Can

Men and women today are equal in all aspects. This is what we commonly see today however we can't deny the fact that there are still a few places to find without equality among genders - one is in the workplace. The most obvious case with regard to equality in the workplace is that women earn less money than men. In 2001, the GAO or Government Accountability Office made a report that the total weekly earnings of women were only about 75% of what men were earning. For every dollar which a man is earning at work, a woman only makes about 80 cents - this has been going on for decades since women started working.So what brings about the huge difference in what women are earning compared to that of men? Listed below are a few factors as to why the male gender earns more from work.TIME COMMITMENT FOR WORKWorking hours is one of the huge factors that affect the earnings made by each gender. In a whole year, with regard to the genders women are more prone to lesser attendance at work. Furthermore, since women are more likely to leave their jobs and mostly would not stay for long in a job, their specific wages can be affected.With regards to time, we can also say that women have lesser time commitment to their jobs especially when they have children to take care of at home. Thus, the less time that is spent at work results to lesser wage and earnings for women. Also, according to statistics married men with kids are actually more motivated to work than those that are single and especially than women whether single or married.BEING IN THE WRONG JOBOne more significant element that affects earnings at work for both genders is their choice in careers. Obviously, if you're employed in a job where more muscle instead of brains is needed and you're a woman then you're likely to make less money. However, though the lesser strength and physical requirement, some jobs would still provide the male gender with greater opportunities for more income. Having to work in the office also requires endurance whether mental as well as physical through overtimes, additional projects, rush projects and so on. As a basic fact, men are able to handle more work regardless if it is mental or physical - thus providing them with the opportunity to make more money.EMPLOYER'S PREFERENCEOne more culprit as to why women these days earn less income than men is the preference of the employer. Since they own the business, they have pretty much all the right to do with it including choose the gender of their staff or employees. This can be influenced by past experiences with regard to handling male or female employees or is simply influenced by the performance of each gender.Listed here are just a brief overview of the factors which affect the lesser earnings of the female gender compared to the male gender. With the society where we are living in which is mostly ruled by men and tradition. However, not because the female gender is the weaker gender it doesn't mean that she will be under estimated - there are certain things that only women can do and they do it perfectly!"Do you agree/disagree with the above reasons or you have another?

Peace Love And Understanding

"Through having spoken to many bisexual women, I'm finding there's a fine line between the labels of "bisexuality" and "polyamory". Most of the LGBT...and I guess we're adding the "Q" for queer -- they frown upon bisexuals simply because it's like a slap in the face for the lesbians. Like, 'have your cake and eat it too' type of mindset. Are they confusing bisexuality with polyamory? We all want acceptance, whether gay, lesbian, transgender, but once bisexuals want the same acceptance, we seem to fling it out the window as this horrifying attempt to make excuses to cheat on your spouse. For instance, would you think it was cheating if a wife strayed on her husband with another woman? Depends, right? For me, I see no difference, unless of course it's a polyamorous lifestyle. What about women who are truly bisexual, yet monogamous with whoever they made a commitment with? It seems unfair that many people of the lesbian community have shunned the bisexual community for simply being themselves - for the mere fact that their attraction has little or nothing to do with their gender, but for who" they fall in love with.

I know I've spoken about this before, but the brunt of the shuns given to transgender women are usually from genetic lesbian women. An MTF (Male to Female). It's kind of odd since this has been around for centuries, and only has really hit its peak during the last 10 years or so due to more options, hormones and surgical procedures to make it happen much more than it used to. Here's another kick in the stomach by the lesbian community if a transgender woman happens to be a lesbian: "It's a 'man' invading our community!" I know men go through a lot to be with lesbians -- but come on. Really? It's disheartening to see so much discrimination against transgendered people who have to deal with closed-minded people of the alternative lifestyle. "Alternative lifestyle" -- remember when they used to refer to us as that back in the 90's? You were about to yell at me, I could feel it. An old friend of mine who is a transgender woman had written an important piece on my blog, which you can , but she states, "A 'secure' woman - lesbian or hetero, or a 'secure' man, gay or hetero does not have sexual identity or partner issues. They are far from questioning another's choice, or need to live life in the way they need to live it. They simply are, - without thought or verification, or discrimination. A transsexual woman actually has no choice in her sex Identity. She pretty much also has little 'choice' in her feelings about a sexual partner. It is identical to a genetic female's feeling of 'being' lesbian or hetero or whatever. The transsexual will feel identically 'lesbian' etc. The thought of her as 'different' - a transbian - is discriminatory, and misogynistic in the perception of her as a man with a woman's body. This is so far from the truth, that it could not be more obvious. She could only want her female body because of being a woman in the first place and in the first person. She is not a transbian. She is simply as true a lesbian as a genetic woman."

It's amazing how many people aren't familiar or exposed to different lifestyles, whether due to upbringing or living in the sticks, where there's only a tiny deli and an old gas station 20 or more miles away, but each and every day, I do feel it's getting better for all of us. For now, I can only hope for more peace, love and understanding and umm, lots of wine...yes, wine. I'm such a hippy.
