3. What are some ways to change this situation?
Promotiong women and their work. I think men feel threatened by women.

yes, I learned a lot, she’s still my role model.
It’s great to hear your thoughts on this matter.
Here is how this sentence can be revised. Try to be a little more careful with your spelling.
Keep practicing writing better structure.
I believe women have the right qualities to be leaders, regardless of the type of business.
I believe there is discrimination with women rigths in the political and business world. By first hand, I can assure, engineer women recieve worst salary than men, at least in Spain, we earn 25% minus salary than men, even though, the man is less competent.
I think a way to change this situation is implementing possitive discrimination, until policial and business people get used to seeing women in managerial positions. Possitive discrimition promotes integration and diversity, due to, it seeks to establish participation quotes of social minorities (as women, homosexuals people, latinamerican people, etc)
I have worked with several female bosses, and I have had several different types of experiences, as with me.
Good word choices. Keep going with your writing practice.
I believe there is discrimination with women rigths in the political and business world.
> I believe there is inequality between men and women’s rights in the political and business world.
Well done.
