Due to biological, physical, health, educational status, etc., fewer women than men have access to opportunities in high-earning or important jobs. 2 - Women suffer more than men the global market crisis when large numbers of individuals are seeking work. 3 - Women have fewer opportunities than men to access information technology, as they are more limited in time and educational standards. Furthermore, there is much differences in the experiences of urban and rural women, rich and poor women, and women of different ethnic groups. Rural women, poor women and women of different ethnic groups still live in very low economic condition of life.
Men still have more opportunities than women in the economic field.
But in this case, the situation can be worse. In a family, if a woman earns more than her husband, it doesn't mean the gap is closed but that it might actually be wider, while it opens up other aspects. This situation creates conflict for both husband and wife. Governments, international institutions and big business should improve policies for women, based on their natural, biological, physical, health status, and more importantly, based on their roles as the mothers of present and future generations. Policies should consider all necessary work in the home and in the society where most of it is unpaid or poorly paid.
