Are Women Equal in 2010?

I don't believe women are equal. I don't know why women aren't equal, they just aren't. For example women and men have their own professional sports leagues, that doesn't sound very equal. If they were equal they could play the same sports with the same rules at the same competitive level.Also, Employers know women are not equal so they might higher a woman who is a little less qualified for a job than a man, just because she is a women. Same goes for African Americans. The employer just doesn't want to get called out on it because that will make the company look bad. I like to call it reverse racism, or in this case sexism. reverse sexism is when someone tries so hard not to be sexist that they are still being sexist. For example back to the job application, they hire the woman but thats still technically sexist towards the male who really was the right candidate for the job. They only hired the woman because she was a woman and they didn't want to be sexist although it turns out that way anyway.
