Woman Tops Celebrity List For Charges Per Instagram Post | Should Men Scream #EqualPay?

The gender pay gap has been defined as the average difference between the remuneration received by working men and women. Globally we are seeing several campaigns being run where it is only the women who are demanding ‘fairness’ in pay structures as compared to those of their male counterparts at work.

However, as expected, whenever it is the reverse, where a woman is being paid much higher than a man, we as a society are prompt to call it ’empowerment’ or attribute it to her sole dedication and hard work. While there are many industries itself that are biased against hiring of Men, the same has to be understood in the realm of business and nature of the job.

For example, an educational institution may always prefer to hire a lady teacher, customer service departments or front office teams will be mostly flooded with women, several organisations choose to hire females in their sales team and then of course you also have the fashion and entertainment industry where women are very much earning more than the Men and surely they deserve the same in their own right.

Let us look at some of our Indian celebs and their charges per Instagram post:
