Women as Equals

In today's society, I think that women are considered much more as equals than ever before. I still think that there are some sexist views against women. 60 years ago, women could still not vote and were considered to be lower class citizens than men, but now women have the same rights as men. Today, many women are CEO's of major corporations and have high powered jobs throughout the US. However, in some parts of the world. women are still not allowed to go out in public or even show their face. Also, women are more commonly raped than men, which shows that there is still some sort of view of women as objects. Women are known to stay at home with the children and look after the family, but even though that is a job in itself, I think that is where a lot of sexism comes from. The theory that women are meant to stay at home with the kids as the dad goes out and makes the money. If people nowadays are brought up correctly, I think that discrimination against women could be eliminated. Despite there being major differences in the treatment of women, I believe that sexism still occurs and women are not treated completely as equals.
