1. Not in Europe. Well, not in The Netherlands (where I live) for sure. I'm a game-design student but I also work as a freelancer. Most of my class-mates and collegues do the same. We all get paid roughly the same, regardless of our gender. I also used to work in a super market as a little extra job for a bit extra money. My best friend (a female) worked there too. We're both of the same age and we both had the same job in the supermarket. We both got paid the same.
The issue still stands in the netherlands.
Eurostat found a persisting gender pay gap of 17.5 % on average in the 27
EU Member States in 2008. There were considerable differences between the Member States, with the pay gap ranging from less than 10% in Italy, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Belgium to more than 20% in Slovakia,
the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Germany, United Kingdom and Greece and more than 25% in Estonia and Austria.
2. Name 1 of those duties that women are not allowed to preform in the army, because I don't know any. Also tell me why that is (because if that's true, there probably is a reason behind it).
Women can't be navy seals or army rangers, regardless of physical ability.
3. Women are physically weaker on average. That's why they are more prone to abuse. The only way to change this is for the women to go to a gym and work out. Physically fit and strong women are less prone to abuse.
Physical strength plays a role, but men just abuse women more frequnetly, more severly and more persistantly than women abusing men, by nearly 3/4's.
Aaannddd I'm done derailing, I swear
