Inequality

Today, we still here cry after cry from the feminist community about sexism in the workplace and gender profiling by colleges and employers. People still believe that women are put down if they succeed, or are kept from making progress. But the truth is, that's just not the case anymore. Women have made leaps and bounds to equality since their "revolution" in the 1800's. But social norms have been confused with gender identification, and as a result, women are being led to think that they are oppress because they are in fact women. But that isn't necessarily true.
In modern society, employers take whoever can get the job done, male or female. It is because of the heightening awareness of this feminist view that a plead for equality has risen. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for equality among the sexes, but the fact is, that has been achieved. Sure, stereotypes still exist, but that's not likely to ever change. The nuclear family of the 20th century no longer exists. We have a women as Secretary of state. More women are graduating and going on to post-secondary education then men are. These are all pieces of evidence that come together to paint one big picture: men don't reign in this world anymore. Now more than ever, women are able to step up and aspire to be much more than any man. And that is exactly what's happening. There was a time when women couldn't vote. Now, they're running government. There was a time when women couldn't attend college. Now they're doing far better than men, education-wise. There was a time when women were expected to be be the stay-at-home mom. Now, families are based on the mothers paycheck. The paradigm of gender identity has become subject of a paradigm shift. The world has seen the ability of women. It's not a Man's world after all.

Welcome to Serious Time

Look left. Now look down. Now back up. You may wonder what your looking at. This, my friends, is a blog. But not just any blog. This is Serious time w/ Gadiel. You may wonder why a 15 yr old boy would ever start a blog. To be honest, it's a class assignment. But hey, I think it could be kind of fun. Getting to hear different views on polarized topics from your peers can be quite the experience. If you couldn't tell by now, I'm pretty much a nerd. Anyway, let's get into it. Let's have a chat, shall we?
