Male are very much priviledge in the law profession and therefore they would be able to get better internships that would lead to better careers which would allow them to move up and provide better opportunities. This also allows them to become much more knowledgeable rather then the women in that same position. Women seem to be purposely left behind and are not able to get those big breaks like the men. Women are stuck in certain position for a very long time because they did not get to go too school when the males did or they were not able to advance themselves like the males did, this is why the women have to rely on the men when they are working on cases. It is as though the women are invisible in the workplace and they always have lots of work to do on a daily basis. Males are always getting praised by their bosses and colleagues for the work that they are getting done but the women get nothing even if they are doing more or better work than the male. Both male and female lawyers go to law school and get paid around the same amount of money but they are tampered because of the gender roles that the law profession is seeming to contribute to. Alot of jobs prefer to have males in higher positions because they are already looked at as dominant and this is providing another sterotype. This could also cause the male and females to fight and this could also lead into the courtroom. Male and females should not be very different because it is important that we do not show the gender roles but lawyers are showing that the male is still in the dominant position even if the female should show the same dominant status. Depending on your ability you should be able to move up and get promoted without a problem but in the law profession it seems that you need to be a male to move up or it will take a countless number of years to do so if you are female.
