Although women make up half of the world's population, they typically do not make up half of the labor force. It's not that they don't want to work or have personal, professional goals; rather, gender inequity and prejudice still prevent women from entering the workforce, keeping them in a cycle of poverty.

Women face obstacles to finding gainful employment—and a way out of poverty—that most men do not. Talk about inadequate educational opportunities for girls, obstinate cultural attitudes about what jobs are appropriate for women, or gender discriminatory laws that prevent women from registering a business through the same process as men; the list of obstacles is endless.

The OP's sister in today's story is a great and talented DJ whose music he loves so much. In fact, the OP is so happy that she’s found her passion in life.

One day, she makes a post on Instagram talking about how female DJs in the industry aren’t given the same opportunities men are and that she’s been a victim of this experience. The OP found it funny when she brought this up.

Apparently, the OP and his sister come from a fairly wealthy family, which has given them so many opportunities in life for their education and careers. OP's sister didn't like this revelation, and she got really pissed about it.

Read the entire story in the OP's own words below.

Now, this is a funny one

What give the OP authority to decide how people are allowed to feel?

Learning more about the discrimination in her field

The OP refuse to see what's going on

Women in the music industry are paid less

The entire family of DJs

The OP ought to listen and learn more

It doesn't erase the fact that there's bias in the Industry

Two things can be true at once

She didn't say she's had it harder than anyone

She was not talking about herself

It does not cancel out the wide bigotry and prejudice in the industry

It does not mean she has discriminated in other ways

All the world privileges doesn't protect you from misogyny

Everyone knows women face constant sexism

She has opportunities that someone else does not

The OP is an AH for two reasons

Just because the OP's has privileges doesn't mean she's lying about having experienced gender discrimination in the industry. However, the OP got an AH verdict.
