Women in the Workplace? EWW.

Let's take a moment to reflect on legends of the past, specifically in Greek Mythology, and see what there roles of power involved! FUN!

Okay so we have old mate ZEUS the supreme lord of Gods. God of the sky, God of all Gods because that's where they lived. That's pretty impressive! Well done sir.
His wife HERA the ultimate protector of... marriage. Oh, well surely the other Goddesses have brilliant powerful status.
HESTIA Goddess of... homelife. Ummmmm one more?
APHRODITE the Goddess of beauty and love.
I think we've covered all bases now for what women are good for having sex, doing laundry and being in wedlock.

Modern capitalism still uses an ancient patriarchy from what I've been exposed to.
My sad story, it's a real tear jerker.
I work in a kitchen with 6 other males, I am the only female aside from the waitress'. Out of the 7 kitchen staff two of us have gone through and completed an apprenticeship. Myself being one and another being a homosexual male who sometimes likes to dress as a female, sometimes, let's call him Basil. And boy can he rock a pair of stilettos. When our head chef got fired the hierarchy suggested that Basil being the sous chef was next in line to become head chef unless a head chef was specifically hired. They changed the rules on Basil, suggesting a shared managerial system but in saying this Basil still has the work load of a head chef. Dealing with every issue, suppliers, ordering, complaints without any recognition.  Patricia Yancey Martin suggests the belief of doing gender perhaps Basil should be more "manly" so his attributes are acknowledged...? She uses notable interviews and observations in associations of practicing gender at work. Practising gender is a constantly changing development!

 
Raewyn Connell provides the theory that gender is a foundation for characteristically analysing. Apparently there are differences with male and female brains! A breakdown involves that women's brains are smaller and they are more emotional. Men are smarter and dominate females in spatial activities. It's written by a bloke, I may be bias, he's a jerk. He also didn't take into consideration that I will now be safe when the zombie apocalypse occurs because my brain is so small.

Sorry mate! I don't have many. If any.

So with Connell's theory we can see how a hierarchy of gender creates the need for women to be seen as weak in the work place and therefore shouldn't be paid as much, or treated as equals.
