One-third of women feel like they’ve been held back in life, simply because they’re a woman, according to new research.
One-third of women (35%) feel like they’ve been held back in life, simply because they’re a woman, according to new research.
Perhaps due to their willingness to do everything from work to wellness differently than previous generations, 50% of Gen Z feel as though they’ve been held back, much more than any other age group.
That’s according to a new survey of 2,000 women, which found that blockades can be found in both their personal and professional lives.
These women find that their ideas are more likely to be dismissed (45%) or that some things are considered “unsafe” for them (36%).
Others are not taken as seriously as men (35%), are paid less than their male colleagues (35%) or are underestimated by their peers (32%).
