Persuasive Speech

These past few weeks we have been creating and presenting speeches. The topics this year weren't the best but we all made do. here's my one hope you enjoy.     




GENDER PAY GAP


The gender pay gap or gender wage gap is the average difference between the salary for men and women who are working. There are two distinct numbers regarding the pay gap


This is absolute rubbish Why just why people getting paid less because of their gender like dude how much more messed up can us humans get.  Last time I checked there's no discount for being a woman groceries doesn't cost them less, rent doesn't coast them less so why the heck should they be paid less

In the last 20 years, the gender pay gap has only been reduced by 7%. In 2012 it was at its lowest wich was 9.1% . The causes of the gender pay gap are complex. In the past, a significant proportion of the gender pay gap was due to factors such as differences in education, the professions and industries that men and women work in, or the fact that women are more likely to work part-time, but these factors only represent 20 % of the problem

The other 80 % of the gender pay gap is now steered by what the research calls “unexplained” factors. These are the harder to identify factors, like awear and unawear prefrences impacting negatively on women’s recruitment and pay. Women could do the same job as men and have the same qualifications but still be paid less luckily  as a teacher that type of stuff doesn't matter. although have you noticed that more men are given higher up roles in companys.




to be honest I think its insane. women don't deserve to be paid less. men and women have roles different roles but deserve to be paid equally
