“That’s not fair!”
As children, we all shouted this in a moment of frustration or perceived injustice. But as we got older—and hopefully wiser—most of us quickly realized that . . . well, we were right. Life isn’t fair. Just not exactly in the way we meant when protesting an early bedtime.
True injustice starts early. From birth, some of us have privileges that put us way ahead of the pack, and the impact of those privileges only grows as we get older. Eventually, there’s no parent or teacher to step in and solve the problem.
One of the big, obvious problems in today’s society is gender inequality.

Why Women Must Be Excellent to Promote Diversity
Is achieving gender equality just a dream?
Most women have a disadvantage when it comes to getting hired, promoted, or financed. Not for any good reason. As employees, women work just as hard as men. If Sheryl Sandberg has proven anything, it’s that women can excel in the C-suite, too. And according to fintech whiz Emma Sánchez Andrade Smith, women make great banking clients: “They default less, they get better returns, they are more loyal, and they share with friends more often than men.”
And yet, the double standard remains–and bleeds into our mentality. A 2016 study by Kidzania found that gender divides what kids want to be when they grow up from as young as four.
We’ve all heard the same talking points about achieving gender equality: unequal pay, boys clubs, strict dress codes, etc. But what do you really know about gender inequality across the world? Take this quick quiz to test what you know!
How did you do? Any of those gender inequality statistics catch you by surprise?
If you’re one of the lucky few who works with women and men who believe in and promote equality, it’s easy to forget that there’s still a lot of work to be done.
So what can you do? The first step is awareness. Determine if you have any cognitive biases that are making you part of the problem. Then learn to be an active ally in the workforce and to call out inequality when you see it.
If we all take positive steps today, we’ll achieve gender equality eventually.
