Answer:

Patty may win based on the doctrine of promissory estoppel.

Explanation:

The doctrine of promissory estoppel is a legal principle that helps enforce a promise, even if it was made without formal consideration. This happens when the person that was promised something and makes a decsion based on this promise that ends badly because the promise was not upheld. In this case, Patty quit her job because she thought her uncle was going to pay her $200 per month. Because her uncle only paid her one out of the six months, she is without $1000 that she was counting on to focus on her studies.

Gender inequality is a complex social problem in our country." Explain​
Lerok [7]

Woman and man aren't treated the same, women cannot do a lot of thing that men cannot, vote until the early 2000's in some countries, women cannot attend important festivals in New Zealand maori tradition. people tend to think that women are lazy and they cannot fight, before they called woman peasants or slaves (they're not actually slaves). It's not true, woman are humans too, ad woman were never got the chance to fight and nobody really knwo what woman could do (except for themselves). But now countries like USA, China, Russia, UK etc. Allow woman to vote.
