Are Henrik Ibsen’s words true today?

I feel that Ibsen’s words are true today. Not as bad as it was back in the 19th century however it still exists. There are a lot of examples. I feel that in some governments the majority of the people working in the government are men. For example, in the United States Of America, the current president Donald Trump has been assembling the most male dominant government in decades. There has been a new analysis that 80% of the top job nominations of the government have gone to men. This is quite a big number and I feel that this does show that Ibsen’s words are true even until today. There have been times before where it has been different. For example, when George W. Bush was in office there were actually more women working. So there are times where Ibsen’s words aren’t completely true, however, it justs depends on the person. There are a lot of differing opinions.

 

People also assume that there is more in only developing countries however this shows that Ibsen’s words are not only true in the developed world but it is also shown in developed countries.

 

“The Obama, Bush and Clinton administrations, Gips said, all made efforts to pick administration officials who “looked like America” in terms of their race, gender and viewpoints, and under Obama, geography. But doing so took work. “There’s always a government-in-waiting who want to come in, and unfortunately, they often are mostly white men.”

This quote also shows that it is all about the person’s opinion.
