Men and women both work for their household expenditures,
yet it is true for most of the families that the man earns more than the woman.
The reason does not lie in the stereotypes or beliefs,
rather the time both the genders put in decides the pay. Turns out that men
tend to put in more time doing their office work compared to women. Women spend
more time taking care of their babies and households. Even though this reason
has its roots in the societal stereotype, there is no conspiracy at play; it is
only fair that those that work more get higher rewards.
This is not to say that sexism doesn’t exist and that women
are always treated fairly. But as a general rule it is inconceivable that
employers could hire a female worker for the three quarter of what they would
have to pay a man with the same qualifications.
