Earnings Between Men and Women

Hey everyone,


Before I go any further in this topic I think it should be noted that while there are problematic limits due to gender stereotypes, not every issue is related to that point. This is a very helpful video that explains some of the reasons behind different wages between genders. This clip shows that while workforce discrimination is still around us there are in fact other reasons that women do make a lower income then men and how that might be slowly changing. 

Some of these reasons include:
  • Jobs women and men choose
  • Future work expectations
  • Part-time vs. Full-time
  • Hiatuses

The purpose of this video was to show that the answer might not always be stereotypes/gender tension. It is of course still a very clear issue in the world and therefore needs to be properly understood what is considered gender tension and what is not.
