Illustration Shows How Much Harder It Can Be For Women In The Workplace And This Man Got Upset About It

by Rachel

Gender inequality is a very real barrier that so many women around the world still face today. Although there have been some great strides of progress that have been made over the years, there are still many areas where women’s progress lags behind.

Often, these issues that women face are invisible to men, or else they just choose to ignore them and pretend that it does not exist. Whether it is wilful ignorance or not, sometimes men do not notice it until it impacts them directly.

Friendly reminder that feminism benefits everyone, but it should not have to be targeted towards men in order from them to decide to care about women! Check out this graphic below to show this!

After babysitting his grandchild, this man realised that it is much harder for women than he originally thought!

I’ve been helping to baby-sit my year old grandson this past week & it’s brought home to me the stark reality of this image. I salute every working woman & acknowledge that their successes have required a much greater amount of effort than their male counterparts pic.twitter.com/2EJjDcK1BR

This man got a little upset about it, and created a new graphic. Because, of course, the only problems women have is laundry!

How about this sir pic.twitter.com/UFoCd8WU2H

The "invisible labour" that goes into running a home is often overlooked; gender equality starts at home.

Hope that this tweet coming from you encourages more men to come forward and share the household chores...#genderequality starts at home .#sharetheload

Lots of people disagreed with the graphic

Yes there are men who support but the once who don't support are far higher in numbers

Including this very valid point!!

Thanks @anandmahindra for acknowledging the dual burden ....I would tweak the image slightly and show 7 men and 3 women - instead of the 50:50 that this image shows.

Plus, this funny point!

Thanks for the acknowledgment. But in all fairness as a working mother, I’d have it no other way ‘cos:
1. I am far better at raising kids than my husband could ever be, so the kids needn’t settle for second best.
2. My children are so much more attached to me I’ll do it again!

Recognise! Household! Work! As! WORK!

How about recognising care giving work as work without glorifying it and unshackling it from free labour category.. That would also mean asking govts to come up with wages for care giving work.

Some change starts on the individual level, but it needs to be supported legally, too!

Even our laws are made accordingly. Maternity leave is 26wks but paternity is only 15 days. Given that a mother's role is much bigger in infant development, can't fathers play more active role? Why limit development of that bond in early days of infancy?

Yet most men don't realise until they are in that position

I can completely relate to this..have been taking care of my 2 kids for last 2 weeks while my wife is traveling for business..the last 2 weeks have been an eyeopener...working women need a much greater effort for the same achievement

— Umesh Joshi (@umeshjoshi6) February 5, 2019

And most women have to work twice as hard to get to the same place!

Not to forget, these women have to put in double efforts at workplace too, to prove their worth!

Some countries are making changes to encourage equal participation in homes!

And here is the article that captures the other end of the spectrum on how Sweden is bringing about a social change in this space.

Do you agree? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Yes, definitely and women needs more support from family as well as employer as if anyone takes break than its really tough to get back on same salary or designation
