Women at Work
The author's idea is that women didn't work at jobs because a lot of people thought they were useless. For example there weren't women doctor, lawyers, preachers, etc. By the 19th century society accepted the fact that women were able to do jobs they were not supposed to do. Women were excluded from the professions, except for writing and teaching. It was considered nursing as a proper female occupation. Also the teaching profession was a great field for women to work.
Women didn't get the important assignments and promotions, this was a severe discrimination in jobs. One of the facts that make women being discriminates is that if they're pregnant, and in this situation the company has to pay the worker as if she's working and this stops productivity.
My point of view is that women shouldn't be discriminated from works that are for men. We just need to get a different solution to the problem that women get paid the time they're having their baby. I think society has changed their point of view about women. The problem of accepting women at jobs is that their children have a lack of education by their mothers. This is giving a lot of problemas to society we should attack that, it probably is giving more problems than solutions. I understand the fact they want to do something more than raising children. But someone has to do that job.
i completelly agree with diego in this because i think in matter of work and jobs I think is good that women and men are the sam, as in responsabilities as in wages , this creates a better competition and desires of everyone to improve their work.
