Reading the article and watching the video made me realize that women are at a greater risk of experiencing the capitalist system, which makes it difficult for them to succeed. In my own experience, working in a security guard company as a woman is a bit challenging when it comes to capitalism in the United States. Because The security industry is generally recognised as a male-dominated field, I think the biggest challenge for myself has been working in an industry where older male guards, who have been doing it for decades, are still adapting to the idea of having women working beside them. this often-difficult period as I have personally witnessed their changing attitudes. Once you prove that you are all there to do the same job, and you have the skills to protect yourself and your colleagues. As a woman, I don’t feel successful in the marketplace since it is still a male-dominated field, so I believe that women will have a hard time succeeding at it. However, I believe I have achieved a little bit of success because I worked hard to earn my respect and have more opportunity. Honestly, I don’t know what I want to do with my life, but I think I will be successful if I gain or have the confidence to do the job that makes me happy without feeling as if I am being controlled and forced. It’s clear to me that I can do makeup well and I am good at it, but I don’t have the confidence to do it. I would like to become a makeup artist and an early childhood educator. Feminist economies that don’t exploit anyone would include being fairly equal to everyone and providing equal opportunities for everyone no matter their gender, race, ethnicity, income, or religion. It is also important to have fair and equal wages for all their workers and don’t look at their gender. I think that people should get paid for what they work for. And have the same accessibility as the men have for whatever they want to work at.
