Too this day‚ there is evidence of this type of inequality‚ despite it being a modern era where equal opportunity is expected. Sex stereotyping has shaped views on what jobs are suitable for that of women and men‚ which has consequently led to women having perhaps less opportunities than men‚ and has also led to potential harassment‚ of various kinds‚ due to their gender.
