In corporate world, the woman is also being discriminated against. An ambitious woman is looked at with disdain by her male counterparts. She meets all sorts of obstacles on her way to the top. Men prefer to hire women as receptionists, secretaries and tea girls. Women are not taking seriously when important jobs are being considered, even though it has been said that women manage better than their male colleagues. Women at top positions in organizations have various tales to tell about their negative experiences from the men. The journey to the top itself for the woman is very tortuous. Men rise faster than the women in the office even though women work as hard. Some hard working women are branded wayward and this scares some hardworking, responsible women from daring to get to the top. Most women end up just at the middle level and their earnings also stop at that level.
The woman is also made to carry a lot of responsibilities in order to have a solid home. This reflects in her health. And with a poor health, one is automatically poor. You need good health to make money. A sick person in bed, cannot make money, rather, the money being used to treat her will further impoverish her and the family. In the rural areas, you see women carrying babies on their backs with loads of fire wood, or water or food items on the head. The woman comes back from the farm, fetches the wood, the water, prepares the meal and takes care of care of the little ones which are usually many in number. This woman is overworked day in day out. That is why you see a good number of the rural women looking much older than their real ages. By the time they live like this for some years, the get down with terrible infirmities which may even lead to their death. The woman is thereby made to be poor when her health fails due to workload.
