Current Connection 3.2

            

    Women Are Mistreated At Work? Even Women Don't Believe This Myth. A article written by Kyle Smith giving evidence that women are not treated any differently than men in the work place.  

"The assumptions behind these ideas are wrong. Says who? Say American women. It’s a myth that women are suffering on the job" (Smith). There is no physical evidence that women are being miss treated, however, there have been many verbal reports of it. When you look into the surveys though women seem very happy.
    "A Gallup survey says that, with one exception, no matter how you slice up job satisfaction, American women are equal to or ahead of men" (Smith). So a woman can not claim they are miss treated after what the surveys say. Of course women are sometimes miss treated but so are men. And it just proves that its not an act of discrimination on women.
       " Perception of sex bias at work is widespread, and yet it all but disappears when you try to nail people down on specifics" (CEO). It may be different for women and men with the jobs that they do. If a women did a blue-collar job she  may not be accepted and if a man did a hairstyling job he may not be accepted.
    Gender roles in the workforce are very controversial because different genders are more accepted for different jobs.
     So not only women can be treated wrong but men can be treated bad as well in the work force
