Although the position of women in society today has improved, there is still a great deal of sexual discrimination. Do you agree?

Throughout

century, the role of women within society has changed, and the majority of people feel that

than ever before, it is accepted in western culture that many women now have careers.

Nonetheless

, in my opinion, there is still a great deal of sexual equality has been achieved is not altogether accurate.

To begin

with, many women find it very difficult to return to

after having children. The main reason for

is that there are rarely any provisions made for childcare and in the workplace and, in these cases, women are forced to find someone to look after the children while they are at

. Obviously,

can prove to be a time-consuming and expensive process, yet it must be done if mothers are to be able to resume their careers.

Secondly

Linking Words

, the traditional views of the position of women within society are so deeply ingrained that they have not really changed.

For instance

Linking Words

, not only is the view that women should stay at home and look after their family still widely held, but it is rain forced through images seen on television programmes and advertisements. An example of

is that few men are ever seen doing house

on television, seen

is traditionally thought of as " a woman`s job".

Thirdly

Linking Words

, since families often need two incomes in order to enjoy a good standard of living, a woman finds herself doing two jobs: one at home and one at the office. So, it could be said that a woman`s position has, in fact, deteriorated rather than improved, with the result that women carry the burdens of equality but get none of the benefits.

In contrast

Linking Words

, there are some people who claim that the problem of sexual

discrimination

no longer exists. The point out that women do, after all, have legal rights intended to protect them from

.

In addition

, a few women are now beginning to reach top positions as judges, business leaders and politicians, while a number of other previously all-male professions are opening their ranks to women.

Nonetheless

, these examples are not the norm and

discrimination

is still very much with us. Taking these points into consideration, I would say that the position of women has improved only slightly. While, rules and laws have changed, it is the deep-rooted opinions of people within society which are taking a longer time to evolve. Needless to say, until these attitudes have changed, sexual

discrimination

will remain a problem which we all need to face and fight against.
