“Discimination”
Thesis Statement:”sex discrimination should prevented”
All of the people are created equal.We are beautiful in God’s eye.But
we have a similarities and difference.We have also our sex we have
difference about it.For now they have different sex aside from male and
female we have also called LGBTQI or
Lesbian,Gay,Bisxual,Transgender,Queer and Intersex.These community
experiencing discrimination in our community.
First of all we should know the meaning of discrimination. In
human social affairs, discrimination is treatment or consideration of, or
making a distinction in favor of or against, a person based on the group,
class, or category to which the person is perceived to belong rather than on
individual attributes. This includes treatment of an individual or group,
based on their actual or perceived membership in a certain group or social
category, "in a way that is worse than the way people are usually treated".
[1]
 It involves the group's initial reaction or interaction going on to influence
the individual's actual behavior towards the group leader or the group,
restricting members of one group from opportunities or privileges that are
available to another group, leading to the exclusion of the individual or
entities based on logical or irrational decision making. We have different
types of discrimination like in our age,disabilities,religons and etc but we
are focusing in Sex discrimination.
Though gender discrimination and sexism refer to beliefs and attitudes in
relation to the gender of a person, such beliefs and attitudes are of a social
nature and do not, normally, carry any legal consequences. Sex
discrimination, on the other hand, may have legal consequences. Though
what constitutes sex discrimination varies between countries, the essence
is that it is an adverse action taken by one person against another person
that would not have occurred had the person been of another sex.
Discrimination of that nature is considered a form of prejudice and in
certain enumerated circumstances is illegal in many countries.
Sexual discrimination can arise in different contexts. For instance, an
employee may be discriminated against by being asked discriminatory
questions during a job interview, or by an employer not hiring or promoting,
unequally paying, or wrongfully terminating, an employee based on their
gender.
Sexual discrimination can also arise when the dominant group holds a bias
against the minority group..In an educational setting, there could be claims
that a student was excluded from an educational institution, program,
opportunity, loan, student group, or scholarship because of their gender. In
the housing setting, there could be claims that a person was refused
negotiations on seeking a house, contracting/leasing a house or getting a
loan based on their gender. Another setting where there have been claims
of gender discrimination is banking; for example if one is refused credit or is
offered unequal loan terms based on one's gender. [As with other forms of
unlawful discrimination, there are two types of sex discrimination – direct
discrimination and indirect discrimination. Direct sex discrimination is fairly
easy to spot – 'Barmaid wanted', but indirect sex discrimination, where an
unnecessary requirement puts one sex at a disproportionate disadvantage
compared to the opposite sex, is sometimes less easy to spot, although
some are obvious – 'Bar person wanted – must look good in a mini
skirt'.Another setting where there is usually gender discrimination is when
one is refused to extend their credit, refused approval of credit/loan
process, and if there is a burden of unequal loan terms based on one's
gender. Socially, sexual differences have been used to justify different roles
for men and women, in some cases giving rise to claims of primary and
secondary roles. While there are alleged non-physical differences between
men and women, major reviews of the academic literature on gender
difference find only a tiny minority of characteristics where there are
consistent psychological differences between men and women, and these
relate directly to experiences grounded in biological difference However,
there are also some psychological differences in regard to how problems
are dealt with and emotional perceptions and reactions that may relate to
hormones and the successful characteristics of each gender during
longstanding roles in past primitive lifestyles.

Thesis statement:”Gender Inequality should prevented”

Gender inequality, or in other words, gender discrimination refers to unfair rights

between male and female based on different gender roles which leads to unequal
treatment in life. The term gender inequality has been widely known in human history
but not until the beginning the 20th century has the transformation of gender relations
become "one of the most rapid, profound social changes"And at the same time, the
position of men and women were generally set. The growth of this situation has been
obviously seen. According to a survey in America, female's salary at work is 75% as low
as male's. Coming back to last century, at work, when men were paid 1 dollar, the
amount that women received was just 58 cents, in accordance with the law in 1963
(Tran 2012) . And in Vietnam, gender inequality is shown in the difference between two
genders in the number of babies. Statistics of Ministry of Planning & Investment in 2010
reported that there were 110.6 new-born boys out of100 new-born girls which was much
higher than in the past.However, as a matter of fact, gender discrimination has made a
big argument in society about whether the equality among genders should be
encouraged or not. Regarding to this problem, American people seem to appreciate the
position of women, meanwhile, the Chinese tend to think of higher power of men in
life.Thus, this paper, with the purpose of reporting the current states of gender
inequality, its impacts as well as the solutions to improve this trend, will give readers
another look at this controversial problem.
Gender inequality is a social problem which causes unfair treatment in society
between different genders. These dissimilarities are distinguished from biological
factors, especially from differing reproductive roles in life (Reeves & Baden 2000). This
misperception comes originally from the wrong understanding about the position of each
gender in life.Nowadays, the paradox that makes women suffer adversities and put
women into unpleasant situation is seen in every angle of life. However, the method of
gender discrimination in one place differs from that in others. For example, in workplace
gender inequality accelerates when entering the job racing, not only the dissimilar
salary, inequality at work is demonstrated through the differences between genders and
the amount of money paid. In the aspect of education, in the past, men are prone to
have more chances to go to school. Young women seemed to have fewer opportunities
for higher education than young men Regarding to the reasons and the origin of gender
inequality, it can be seen that Asia would be the place where gender discrimination has
seemed to be a "tradition". According to the General office for population family
planning, the idea of distinguishing men from women came from the impacts of
Confucianism and the awareness of people about life. Men were thought to have a duty
of continuing the ancestral line. In that society, not having a son meant to be
disrespectful towards the ancestor. Going on with this wrong conception, women are
more likely to lose the role in community.
 From all the discussing above, gender inequality is obviously an urgent problem
in the world. Despite the fact that its volume much decreases, it still exists and makes a
lot of people suffer its consequences every day. And there are many reasons leading to
gender discrimination which cannot be solved easily. However, with education and
progressive thoughts of people, there are also reasons to trust in the future of gender
inequality being stopped. Then, hopefully, people can live in fairness no matter what
gender they are.
