As we know, Colombia, as many others countries, has several stereotypes and misconceptions about gender roles. However, Norway has a gap of stereotypes more reduced, that is to say in this country there are more gender equality, at least it is what it seems. Many studies in Western countries, show us that in most of them, women are stereotyped as lower in competence than men, but a few studies make evident that Norway is one of the most gender equitable countries -Global Gender Gap Index- .
That means, while in Norway women can get the same kind of job that the men can, in Colombia cannot. Norwegian women have the same opportunities, and the same rights, that his male countrymen. In Colombia, women still are idealized as housewives, men are the head of the family, and they (men) are “who deserve more respect”, and women who have job, do not receive the same payment than a man that have the same, there is a wage gap.
