Give 4 examples of how gender discrimination continued throughout the United States even after women were given the right to vot

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Note that the two previous answers did not answer the question, for one was about race (not gender), and the other stated about the right to vote (in which the question asked about the discrimination after women were given the right to vote).

Before we answer the question, we must note that women were given their right to vote following the aftermath of World War I, during the 1920s. This allowed them to vote, but did not address any other issues, such as the women's right to work, the type of jobs they can work at, etc.

4 examples of gender discrimination can include, but is not limited to:

Discrimination of Work: As most women started to move away from homes to work in factories during the two World Wars, the US relieved them to make work for returning soldiers and expected women to return to taking care of the house. However, many women wanted to continue to work, which led to a discrimination of what kind of work women were given. They typically could only hold jobs such as nurses (though not doctors or nurse practitioner), teachers (but cannot become principals), etc, etc. This was later addressed through the Equality Act, which forced employers to look at merits rather than gender. However, you must note that all genders must be able to meet the requirements for the job to obtain it.
Discrimination of Pay: While women have more choices to choose from in later years due to the Women's Rights Movement, there was still much difference in the gender gap. Usually higher ranking males make more money than women who hold the same type of rank. Many sources have published that women generally get paid inbetween the lower end male jobs and higher end male jobs, which means that their pay isn't the worst, while isn't on par with male companions.
Discrimination of Education: While public schools are better at bridging the two gaps, there are school where they are either all-male or all-female, in which the level of Education given to females would be different from the level given to males. Also, the type of classes generally given to males & females may differ greatly, leading to an early difference that would affect how the genders will live, as well as their future work.
Discrimination in Military: While women generally can hold positions within the Military, we can see in history that many of the women hold positions such as nurses, etc. However, in today's military, the gap is less, but can still be seen.

After the eruption of Mount St. Helen’s, what lesson did biological legacies teach, and astonished, scientists?

beks73 [17]

The eruption of Mount St. Helens 35 years ago provided an amazing opportunity for scientists to study the effects of catastrophe. The incredible lessons are as valuable as ever!

May 18, 2015, marks the 35th anniversary of one of the most violent natural disasters of our modern time, the colossal 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington state. Its explosive power shocked the world and made headline news. Fifty-seven people died, over $1 billion worth of property was destroyed, and over 230 square miles (600 km2) of forests were immediately flattened. Recent rumblings are again making news, raising fears that the volcano may be reawakening.

While the losses were tragic, the value to science has been inestimable. Geologists vastly improved their ability to predict eruptions, safely evacuating tens of thousands of Filipino people before Pinatubo erupted in 1991. Scientists began learning many other valuable lessons, some of which have challenged the foundations of evolutionary thinking.

Harry R. Truman, who operated a lodge near Mount St. Helens for over fifty years, became a folk hero when he refused to evacuate. “The mountain is a mile away,” he told reporters. “The mountain ain’t gonna hurt me.” He and his lodge were later buried under 150 feet (46 m) of debris.

The eruption of Mount St. Helens is often regarded as the most significant geologic event of the twentieth century. Since the volcano was conveniently located in Washington state, only two hours’ drive from Portland, scientists could document the eruption in unprecedented detail. Although not the most powerful explosion on record, it provided a natural laboratory for understanding how quickly catastrophic processes can reshape the earth, and how rapidly wildlife can recover.

Within moments of eruption, the whole northern side of the mountain (two-thirds of a cubic mile of rock) slid away—the largest observed landslide on record. The eruption lasted nine hours, followed by more eruptions over the next six years. Geologists, who are accustomed to thinking about slow evolutionary processes shaping our world, were astounded by the scale of initial destruction and the speed at which new geologic features formed. Thirty-five years later, Mount St. Helens still teaches us lessons about the powerful forces the Creator used to shape the earth. These findings confront the underlying slow-and-gradual assumptions of modern geologic thinking, and they give us invaluable clues about the catastrophic potential of a global, cataclysmic Flood.
