Question 9 • CR04258 Sociology

Which of the following is an example of gender inequality in politics?

Answer
A
less funding for women’s college athletics
B
the wage gap
C
the glass ceiling
D
underrepresentation in political office

Explanation

Gender inequality in politics includes women having fewer opportunities to participate in political leadership and decision-making. Underrepresentation in political office is a direct example because women hold a smaller share of elected and appointed positions than men. The glass ceiling is also a form of gender inequality, but it refers broadly to barriers to advancement in organizations, not specifically political representation.
