I wrote this essay for a course that I attended.
Women often are the ones who get
negative results from the double standards created by the society. In a
heteronormative system, domestic work labeled as women's work is never
preferred as a real job that requires professional expertise as well. This is also
evident in the issue of migration. Male immigrants must experience social
injustices, such as very low payment, bad employer, and others. Women who
migrate because they have to meet family needs often experience injustice
caused by their status as "the weaker" part of the patriarchal
community. Countries that accept these migrants, both legally and illegally,
refuse to accept the fact that they need less-paid workers, especially in the
field of care and household. These two fields play an important role in social
and economic development in each country.
