Men and women, because of their inherent physical differences, are not equally suited for many tasks. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure to address the most compelling reasons and/or the examples that could be used to challenge your position.
With the advancement of technology and society, statements espousing the differences between men and women's efficiency sound quite archaic. The segregation of work as men's work and women's work is a cruel indictment of the rampant misogyny that is still prevalent in modern society.
Firstly, women today have made rapid strides in domains which were always viewed as 'male dominant'. For example, we have more female airplane pilots, construction workers and coal miners than ever. Yet there remains the popular opinion that some jobs are best left to men. It is true that men and women are adorned with a different set of physical characteristics. Women's bodies are congenitally predisposed towards childbirth and infant care. However, from an anthropological standpoint, it is important to note that women have always been active hunter-gatherers and foragers in nomadic tribes. Prehistoric communities do not appear to have pigeonholed women into performing duties that are inherently matronly.
The association of men with physical endurance and strength is misplaced and baseless. Historical accounts show us that women worked actively in foundries and kilns during the industrial revolution. This conception that women are best suited to docile and submissive roles was challenged during the two world wars in which scores of women signed up for the draft. Today, more and more women are engaged in active military service in warzones, effectively debunking such chauvinistic and erroneous claims.
Interestingly, the technological revolution of the 1980's showed us that work was not just a mere display of brute strength. The jobs of the internet-era warranted cognition, swiftness and attention to detail, traits which women were able to bolster and use effectively. Women continue to rule the roost in sectors which require finesse, panache and rigor. For instance, in a study conducted on e-commerce establishments, it was found that women were more likely to be employed in enervating positions such as computer programming, data analysis and consultancy. Although this can be considered to be an affirmation of their innate physiological constraints, it is also a glaring testament to their alacrity and indispensability to a conventional workplace. Women have efficaciously circumvented criticism to carve a niche for themselves.
The role of women in a typical household is a product of a centuries-old patriarchal hierarchy which has men as primary caregivers.It should also be acknowledged that most men are unwilling to accept the involvement of women in conventional male bastions such as industrial labor and construction.This trepidation has led to a reinforcement of this predatory hierarchy. Concerted attempts have also been made by certain communities to curtail the progress of women, particularly in the spheres of education and skill-acquirement. As a result, female literacy in several parts of the world lags behind the male average. Women are constantly under-represented in legislatures and public fora. They continue to be paid lower wages than their male counterparts even when the quantum of work is commensurate.
In my opinion, this is a product of the deliberate suppression of women's rights. Despite the overarching necessity for women employment, we are still held back by narrow-mindedness and sectarianism. There is gross misinformation on the internet regarding women's contributions to science and education. For example, Rosalind Franklin's contribution to biochemistry has been overshadowed by the work of her male counterparts. Many women continue to be poorly represented in academic publications and testimonies. The aforementioned issue only offers ammunition to those practicing exclusion and factionalism.
In conclusion, it should be understood that physical constraints can be easily surmounted, and women have constantly proved that. It is the mental handicap of not being able to recognize women's rights and efforts that gives rise to such unwarranted statements. Physical differences are ephemeral, all that matters is tenacity and fortitude.
