Obviously there is no such thing as equal rights for women, because our salaries and consideration for high ranking positions are still below par. There has been some movement in that direction though, most visible in government and T.V. anchor positions. However, what I have discovered is that most women earn no more money than before, but it is expected that they will have a job outside the home and then do all the cooking, childcare, and housework anyway.
Between teaching jobs, I sold high priced, famous concert pianos. I was the best salesperson the company had, and one of the best educated. Our manager quit, and a young friend of mine (a man) and I ran the store together. I balanced the register, ordered music, and kept the place organized. We were both good salespeople, but he had never equaled my sales. His hobby was comic books, so he kept them in his Steinway Piano book, and he had a habit of being late any time he knew I was scheduled to open. I helped to train him, and we were good friends and a good team. He had 3 months of college, was a saxophone player and had one year's experience. I taught piano and voice and had 5 and a half years experience. Guess who got promoted to manager? He did. Guess who walked out? You guessed it. I did. That was three years ago. I went back to teaching for half the money rather than work for someone who hadn't grown up yet, but was a MAN. P.S. He was fired a few months later for being late, not balancing the register, not ordering music, etc.
