-Women are paid on average 16% less than men for doing the same work
-Women make up the minority by approx. 30% in government and press
-In the US, there's never been a female president
-Women are 3 times more likely to be victims of rape than men
-70% of moms with kids under age 18 are primary caregivers and participate in the labor force

We have to fight for the equal rights we deserve and settle for no less. Don't give up ladies; stick together and stay strong!
