Look outside. Is there a horse and buggy outside? No? We aren’t in the 1800’s?? And women still aren’t being treated or paid equally? Hmph. Would you look at that!

April 12 was Equal Pay Day – a day that we unfortunately still need. Today, a woman makes between 44-79 cents for every dollar her male counterpart makes, depending on her ethnicity.

#EqualPayDay majorly trended on Twitter for pretty much the entirety of last week, and I had a seriously good time reading through these tweets. But while I love trending stuff on Twitter, I hope to see the day when #EqualPayDay isn’t just an internet trend, but an actual reality.

5. Now this, my friends, is not mathematically sound at all.

To make the same money a man made in 2015, a woman had to work all of 2015 + all the days in 2016 up until today. #EqualPayDay

#EqualPayDay is already done trending. Cool that it was trending for about 78% of the day, though.
