Women "becoming" men in the workplace

I also agree that this approach is quite problematic as it shows inequalities that still occur and continues to only strengthen the idea of gender roles. For example, the STEM fields have long been male dominated professions and only recently has their been a bigger push for women to join this field. If the idea is perpetuated that women must conform to the standards of men or the fact that they must give up certain things, it only increases the inequality between the genders and decreases the level of women joining the certain field. As well as that, it would also create a divide between women who have decided to further their careers and those who have decided to stay at home. Thus, it only increases the idea of gender roles and the grip of patriarchy in today's society.
