Question 12 • World History II

Which correctly describes women in developed countries in the workforce today?

Answer
A
They take on less of the unpaid domestic labor.
B
They make up approximately 2 thirds of the workforce.
C
They no longer work in the lower paying jobs.
D
They receive about 75 percent of what men earn.

Explanation

Women in developed countries still earn less than men on average, with earnings often estimated at about 75 percent of men’s. This describes the persistent gender pay gap. The other choices are inaccurate: women continue to do a substantial share of unpaid domestic labor, remain represented in lower-paying jobs, and do not make up approximately two thirds of the workforce.
