A simple question with no simple answer.

At starting pay, women and men are paid identical salaries for the same work. But, as time goes on, a gap appears and by retirement, the male has been promoted more and is paid more.

This is a complex issue. Some have suggested that careers are generally more central to a male's life and thus works harder at it. Others have suggested that women's careers are often compromised by uniquely feminine circumstances such as childbirth. Still others stipulate that it has more to do with a woman's sense of self worth; that women don't ask for raises as often because they are less likely to feel themselves adequate for such a reward.

To say that "Because men are all sexist pigs!" is not an answer. After all, in order for the comparison between men and women in the workplace to be made.....there must be men and women in the workplace. That means women employers too.

Likewise, to say, "Because women do inferior work!" is also untrue.

Have they been met yet? If so, when were they met? If they were not met yet, what more must we do before we meet them?

I appreciate all helpful input ......... I really suffer from this problem. I`m usually very good-natured and sacrificing with people but then ALWAYS end up either getting exploited for my good nature or taken for granted. This really hurts sometimes

I've been feeling really low recently for a number of reasons. I don't cope very well with these feelings, and tend to take my anger out on objects i.e. slamming doors etc. I tend to snap/burst into tears at the drop of a hat.

My dad does not seem to realise that there are reasons behind this, and shouts at me to go and see the doctor. I slammed one of the doors last week and the glass panel shattered into pieces. We are having problems at home, and I don't think he realises how they are affecting me.

I hate feeling like this, and want to get back to my happy old self. I feel even worse with guilt etc about how I've treated others while I'm feeling like this, but I really don't want to go and see the doctor. Are there any natural remedies I can take that are not actual anti-depressants that will make me feel any better. How can I make my dad realise that I am not simply being unreasonable, and that there are underlying factors that affect the way I've been feeling?
