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

Since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution,

women

have been an active part of civilizations. Nowadays, there is still some kind of gender inequality, despite of female positions have improved. In

this

essay, I am going to shed some light on the gender discrimination that

women

face today.

Firstly

, the main reason why I agree with

this

statement is that some

females

who work in the same jobs as males do not get paid equally. To illustrate, female

football

players do not get paid as male

football

players,

although

women

's soccer is as popular as male

football

. Another reason for believing

this

,

Remove the comma

apply

show examples

is that some employers let their female workers work extra hours and do not compensate them enough.

For example

, a research study done by Harvard University states that more than 67% of female employees do not get paid enough for working extra hours.

Secondly

, the community nowadays look at

females

as a secondary option for employment. As an example, a survey done by the UN that 80% of companies hire

females

if they did not find a male for some specific job.

In addition

, employers now tend to look at

females

that they need more days off in a year than males.

For example

, working

women

sometimes need more than a day off in a month than the average male employee, and that's

due to

their body nature.

Furthermore

,

women

sometimes need a maternal leave that could reach up to a year in case they want to give birth. In conclusion,

women

face inequality in many sectors,

such

as

football

, they

also

see

this

when working extra hours and not being treated the same in terms of health issues. I totally agree that

women

face sexism today,

although

we are in a civilized community that has improved over the years.
