Is there still discrimination against pregnant women?

pregnant woman

Unfortunately, there is. There are many women who, because they are pregnant, are 'invited' to leave or not return to their jobs because being a mother represents a risk for the company ... A risk that is not real, obviously because a woman who is a mother knows how to be a mother, a woman, a worker and whatever else is put in front of her. But this society seems to have not yet learned this.

Another example of discrimination for being a pregnant woman is that of Blanca Manchón, who in addition to being a mother is an elite athlete, who was not affected in the least by the discrimination and taught everyone a lesson. When she got pregnant, she was left without sponsors, but despite that, she was able to win a world championship only seven months after giving birth to her baby.

Blanca had to pay for her trip and participation, training as only she knows how to do it. Two days before giving birth, his main sponsor did not renew him and the brands stopped supporting him. Your body is not the same as it was before you got pregnant, like all pregnant women. It is difficult to recover, it takes at least a year to achieve it, and she, 7 months after giving birth, has already won the World Cup.

But discrimination in sport does not only affect pregnant women, it also directly affects women because they are women. And it seems that there is still a lot to work on in this society, that it does not realize that women, just for the fact of being one, already have to be venerated. Because we are capable of doing everything we set out to do, exactly like man. It is not a question of being better or worse, it is a question of overwhelming logic. We are human beings and the human being has no limits. Do not miss the following video of discrimination against women in sport ... We must be aware not to allow more to happen, neither in sport, nor in any other field.
