Would feminists give up the privileges women have over men in order to achieve equality?

I think the main problem is an attitude that does not respect women. This will cause people to not vote for women, managers to not promote women or give them raises. This causes boyfriends to abuse girlfriends and husband to ignore wives.

I don't know how one goes about changing the sexist attitude of some people -(it's not just men) and especially those who make a negative impact on women.

Most countries with better gender equity scores have higher happiness scores - for everyone, including children. We know that side-by-side in the same jobs, with the same education, experience, and time on the job, women earn just 70 cents for every dollar the guy next to her earns. Women are less likely to be hired for full time permanent positions even when a man is less qualified.

Women hold very few head of department positions in major universities, fewer still at medical schools (although over 50% of med students are now women), and don't get tenure track as often as men with the exact same qualifications. As for in business? It's worse....... A best-practices analysis would be best, rather than re-inventing the wheel.

One problem that gets in the way of implementing even pay equity is the attitudes of people in the U.S., for example the question-asker's attitude and lack of comprehension of what the term "feminist" even means. With the economy set up for multi-workers in each household, pay equity is required - but the support for workers is also not there. All of the other "first world" countries have paid family leave, used when children - or elderly parents - are ill, when children are born or adopted - and in most countries, that is available to both parents.

Universal childcare is also available, and school hours are set to coincide with typical working hours. In most countries, unions are not even needed because the government regulates wages, OT (if "X" number of OT hours are needed, the company needs to hire more employees), fair hiring and promotions, benefits, etc. Employees in the U.S. get less time off than even many South American workers, let alone European workers - that makes it difficult on families with children. Corporations in the US "lay off" and "downsize" employees in order to improve quarterly profits or get rid of higher paid workers , so that most workers have absolutely NO security.

This is disruptive to families, to neighborhoods, to school districts, to cities and townships, to local businesses and governments, and to the entire society, and leads to higher rates of mental illness. Other governments regulate that kind of thing, and make the employers pay the workers when it is proven absolutely necessary to lay people off for a valid reason. Since women make up the majority of the working destitute, (that's below poor), public transportation is also important.

That is a step toward decreasing our carbon footprint, also. Those are some of the things that other nations have implemented to make things good for citizens. In the U.S., however, women are seen as sexualized objects - heck, even GIRLS are objectified by the media here, and we have the highest rate of eating disorders as girls try to be the only thing they are valued for: a skinny body.

In the U.S., women spend over 20 hours more per week than their spouses on household maintenance, when both work, and spend over 20 hours more per week when the husband does NOT work. This is an attitude problem here that makes it difficult to overcome inequity in earnings and employment.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
