In many walks of life there are some that still hold the opinion that women are not equal to men, whether that means being undermined in the workplace or considered to be not as capable as men in traditionally male pursuits from driving to gaming, women still sadly have a long way to go to prove their worth to those that hold such harmful views.<\/p>\n
