男女在这些方面依旧不平等

Pay gap

薪资差距
One the biggest areas in which men and women are still not equal is wages. Research from the Pew Research Center shows that women earned only about 82 cents for every dollar their male counterparts made in 2017. This means a woman would have needed to work an extra 47 days to earn what men did.
男女不平等现象依旧存在的最明显表现为:工资不平等。皮尤研究中心的研究表明,2017年,男性每赚一美元,女性只能赚82每分。这意味着女性还得再工作47天,其收入才能达到男性水平。
Parental leave
育婴假
Another area in which men and women are still not equal is parental leave. Not only do men get less time off to spend with their newborns than women do, but they are also judged more harshly by their colleagues for taking time off.
男女不平等还体现在育婴假方面。相比女性,男性的育婴假更短,陪宝宝的时间也更短,而且同事对于男性修育婴假的态度也更为苛刻。
Workforce participation
劳动力比例
Research from the United States Department of Labor has found that just 57 per cent of working-age women participate in the labor force, compared to 70 per cent of working-age men.
美国劳工部的研究发现:只有57%的劳动适龄女性有工作,相较之下,70%的劳动适龄男性坚守在工作岗位。

The "pink tax"

"粉红税"
Most consumers probably aren't even aware there is a "pink tax" on many products and services, such as dry cleaning, personal care products, and vehicle maintenance. On average, women are charged an extra $1,350 per year for the same things that men buy.
大多数消费者可能都不知道很多产品和服务都存在"粉红税",比如干洗、个人护理产品和车辆维护。平均而言,女性每年在这些产品上交的税要比男性高出1350美元。
Access to education
教育
Around the globe, approximately 62 million girls don't have access to an education, and millions of others are fighting to stay in school as they get older.
全世界范围内,大约有6200万名女性无法接受教育,另外还有100多万名女性随着年龄的增长,正拼尽全力获得继续上学的资格。
Expressions of emotion
情感表达
It's 2018, but it's still not considered socially acceptable for men to express their emotions. Recently, a video of a pair of professional baseball players went viral because it showed the close friends being affectionate during a game. Hateful comments were made about the players' public display of affection. Whether it's affection or sadness, men aren't often afforded the opportunity to express how they feel.
现在是2018年,但社会还是不认可男性自由地表达情感。近来,关于一对职业棒球运动员的视频火了,因为视频上的这对挚友在一场比赛中互生情愫。这对运动员公开示爱之后,恶毒的话语接踵而至。不管是爱慕还是悲伤,男性通常都没有机会表达自己的感受。
Human trafficking
人口拐卖
This isn't one of those areas where equality is needed, but it's important to note that women and girls are unfairly targeted for human trafficking and exploitation in the sex trade.
当然,我们并不希望男女在人口拐卖方面实现平等,但注意到这一点很重要:妇女和女孩是人口拐卖的重点目标,也是性交易中被剥削的对象。
Sexual assault
性骚扰
Women are more likely than men to fall victim to sexual assault. In fact, statistics released by the Pentagon in 2013 showed that American women serving in Iraq or Afghanistan were more likely to be raped by a comrade than killed by an enemy.
相比男性,女性更容易被性骚扰。事实上,五角大楼于2013年发布的数据表明,在伊拉克和阿富汗服役的美国女性被同志强奸的几率比被敌人枪杀的几率更大。
