A question that was posed throughout the table talk was how to face sexism in the workforce and if we can every reach an age where their is equality in the workforce. We are living in an era where women are speaking their minds more freely than ever before. The current MeToo movement has women uniting and standing up for the ways they believe they should be treated. We are breaking down the wall of sexism. It is occurring slowly, but with more and more awareness toward the daily scrutiny and verbal expressions that women experience will hopefully bring us toward a better future. I saw this very interesting post on Twitter about the phrases that women hear on a daily basis that we should not be fine with, but since they occur daily we have become accustomed to them. For instance, these phrases are “you should smile more,” “you should wear makeup,” “you shouldn’t act that way because you are a girl,” “you should do this career because you are a girl,” “girl’s can’t do math.” All the phrases are a representation of sexism that women experience daily, but since society has told us this is normal and that this is what we should be used, we do not get mad about it. However, none of these things should be said because this creates the division between females and males, which gives men the power over females. There should be more conversations and more change occurring so that women can live their truest life without having to listen to this kind of scrutiny. This kind of mentality can especially be seen in the STEM fields because they have been predominantly overpowered by males. In many instances, males, whether knowingly or unknowingly, will diminish the intellect of women in the same career path just solely on the basis of her gender. For instance, in my STEM class when I am working on a group assignment, the males in the group will give the females the easier roles because they believe that women cannot handle the more challenging tasks. This divide is small, but it is still very prevalent. The only way that change can be implemented is if women speak up more about the sexism they face and demand that males change their actions. If we do not demand that men change their way of though, then we will not see change. Women need to attain more higher up positions, so that women can feel empowered to chase after their dreams.
