Many people believe that being fairness is about giving the same or equal amounts of whatever is being given out. In the article Fair Isn’t Equal‚ Curwin‚ (2012) states “Many define it as treating everyone the same‚ but I would argue that doing so is the most unfair way to treat students.” (Curwin‚ 2012) When most children say‚ “that’s not fair‚” they are referring to getting the same thing another child has received.

Equal Pay for Equal Work For years‚ women have been fighting for equality in everything that they do. If one takes a close look at the issues surrounding the differences between men’s and women’s roles in the workforce‚ one will notice that women tend to be one step below on the “status” or “importance” ladder.
