You know what I've never understood?
The fact that it's 2013 and yet, women aren't paid the same amount as men.
Especially if it's a job that requires "hard work" (Which really shouldn't matter anyways) It's like "Oh, you want to be a construction worker and do the same exact job as a man and do the same amount of work? Oh, because you have a vagina, let's pay you less, because you're obviously not capable of doing that job, so we're just going to not give a shit and pay you less, because it's a good excuse for our company."
I'm 15, going on 16 years old, and I really don't want to have to worry about getting a job, and worry about not getting paid enough. I highly doubt any of this will change within the next 20+ years, (Which is really sad.) You don't hear much about it in the news. And for once, I'd just love to not be discriminated against because I'm a woman. I'm not weak, I'm not saying I'm more superior than a male either. I'm saying that we're all human and that I can equally complete at ask that requires just as much hard work as a man can.
its a simple biological fact that a job like construction is more suited to a man because men are generally bigger and stronger and their bodies are more appropriated to the physically demanding aspect of the job.
