Ant Guide Q4

Women today are more often treated by men as equals rather than objects.

Many woman are treated as equals, but many woman are not. 

There are still incidents where women are getting abused, catcalled, and bought. Every 9 seconds, a woman is being assaulted or beaten. They are being treated as animals that are to be tamed rather than the human beings they are. 

There are still giant wage gaps in such industries as music and acting. Take Jennifer Lawrence as an example. She wrote this long essay about how her profits were much less of what the men made while making a movie. Jennifer and her costar Amy Adams only received about 7 percent of the movie profits while the men, Bradley Cooper and Christian Bale, were getting almost 10. This is not an example of objectification, but it is an example of gender inequality. In other jobs, such as doctors, scientists, and engineers, women aren't expected to be working there. When they do work there, they are not paid as much and are treated like a group of kittens. (For anyone who doesn't that comparison I mean they are treated like they are fragile and cannot do much). Women are usually only treated equally when they are in a higher position, even then they are still not treated as a man would be if he was in that position.
