su·et Sujet du bac de juin 2013 , Pondichéry, séries générales , LV1 Do you think that our modern world has become more egalita ­ rian concerning the equality between men and women? 1.

Guldellnes (pistes) • Looking back a hundred years ago, inequality between men and women was simply shockingly obvious.

Things are completely different nowadays.

Yet, equality between men and women is still an issue .

How corne? ln our modern societies, such a topic should be outdated! • Weil, it's certainly not the case.

ln terms of career , for example.

Women having had great careers are still set as examples whereas the fact that they are women wouldn't even be mentioned should equality be the rule.

A good sign of equality might be the day when the question: "how can you manage both your career and your family?" won't be so frequently asked any longer .

Men and women still happen to be considered differently within the same company .

Moreover, many employers often offer lower wages to women and less career perspectives .

That was high time.

• ln politic s, women are still a minority .

The States never had a woman for President.

Margaret Thatcher remains an exception in the 2 / 2. »
