reading the article and founding out a lot of information based on the gender wage gap between females and male is informative but disturbing to me.
Based on the article males get payed way more than females, such as HR managers, males make more money than females. males in that field make 2,019 dollars compared to females, they make 1,538 dollars. At first I never understood why men made more money than females even when participating in the same field.
The article also states that the reasoning for females making less money than men is mainly because of discrimination. Most females will become a mother at a point in time, so their job may feel that they are a liability. When a female has a child they usually take off work for a couple of months, so I guess their job feels that they shouldn’t get payed as much as men because the men does not take off at work when having a child, which means they are being more proactive and adding more benefits to their job.
In my opinion I don’t feel that men should get payed more than females, especially if they are doing the exact same thing . Its not like they have different positions at their job, if it was that, then I would understand.
From my own knowledge, I know that some work environments pay females more than man. When it comes to the mechanic work force , females get payed more as of today. Even though we are still struggling to get the gender wage gap to an equal pay , I feel the we are slowly getting there. but not just yet.
