Additionally, these figures may be this high, due to women being more likely to go to the doctor when there is something wrong with their health, whereas men will put off going to the doctors. The graph below, taken from The Daily Mail, shows ‘The Percentage of Population Using Mental Health Medication’ in America, which supports the argument that women are more likely to develop a mental health disorder compared to men. P3 P3 P3 P3 Those who are in a higher social status or social class, tend to live longer than those who are in the working class, or lower class. According to Equality Human Rights (2014), chapter 6 states that ‘Men in the highest socio-economic class can expect to live around 7 years longer than men in the lower groups. For women, the gap is the same.’ An argument for this set of statistics may be that those in a high social class can afford private healthcare, therefore having access to top medical
My grandmother, who I will refer to as Viola, is 70 years old. Viola was married at 18 years old and is still happily married 52 years to date. Viola describes the married life being a wonderful experience if the two people involved are whole heartedly committed to the relationship and one another. It takes two. You must always maintain a respect for one another, in words and actions.
The late 1800s was a time when many immigrants were coming to America, social classes were being distinguished, and a great deal of prejudice was sweeping over the United States. The upper and middle classes had extreme advantages over the lower class, which consisted of a large number of immigrants. These lower class individuals were looked down upon by the prestigious upper class, which were brought up with the best of everything for their time period. Despite her family’s honorable place in society, one woman rose above the gap between the classes in order to help individuals, who were less fortunate than she. Her name was Jane Addams and this paper will focus on her life-long contributions to help the poor.

“Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily this is not difficult” Charlotte Whitton, First Female Mayor of Ottawa. From 1914 to the current day, women’s status has drastically changed and shaped Canada. Women’s status has changed the economy, the overall perspective of women and the family life. Before world war one, women had little to no rights and were owned by men however, today women are more empowered than ever.
In other words, gender inequality played a huge role in the world from thousands of years ago and still today. Women in the Paleolithic period had a far more equal relationship with men than they did in later societies. This is because women provided most of the food by collecting the same amount, if not more food than men did. Women put in an equal effort of work and were therefore respected as much as men. Throw out those silly perceptions of Neanderthals bonking each other on the heads with clubs because according to Natalie Angier in her article Furs for Evening, But Cloth Was the Stone Age Standby, “researchers have found evidence that the women of the Paleolithic era were far more accomplished, economically powerful, and sartorially gifted than previously believed.” That goes to men and women both!
But by 1983, two changes affected the nursing field. As I mentioned already, hospitals began hiring more BSN grads. The Diploma Grad was still very highly trained and excellent, but the powers in charge believed BSNs could deliver a better quality of care, especially in the written areas-- charting, care plans, research. The 2nd change that hit new grads in 1982-1983 was the failure of the country's steel mills, coal mines, and other labor industries like glass mills, especially in the northeastern states. Husbands were now unemployed and many of the RN-wives who had previously stayed home as housewives and mothers returned to the nursing field.
Husbands and wives were always faithful; adultery was ignominious. This common belief made the Mongols appear not so different from the Europeans. However, Mongol women took care of their husbands and households while the men only had interest in hunting, fighting, and falconry. On the other hand, in Europe the men fully supported the wives. “Any man may take as many wives as he pleases, even up to a hundred, if he is able to support them.
The 1920’s decade has often been characterized as a time of great progress and change, socially, politically and culturally, and was known as the ‘Roaring Twenties’. Women's rights were improved slightly, having more freedom and choices. However, women were still discriminated against and not treated as equal and fairly as men. During the war, many men had to leave the country and fight leaving women to do all the work. This meant the start of women working in positions usually filled by men.
Fenjy Duval Not only do we wage wars with other countries against money, allegedly the same things can be found happening with genders. The infamous gender wage gap, although precedent throughout all time, our era of revelations has pin pointed more focus on it than ever before. The gender wage gap has increasingly improved throughout time, yet the numbers are still quite staggering. Katie Johnston, staff member at the Boston Globe, writes, “Hispanic women who clean offices and houses for a living make just 54 cents on the dollar compared with what male janitors make. Compared with their Hispanic male counterparts, Latina cleaners make just 59 percent.” This instance is only one of many that occur throughout all tiers of the economic agenda.
