Variety: As part of this week’s cover story on income disparity for women in Hollywood, Sandra Bullock spoke to Variety about the first time she became aware that she was being treated differently at work because of her gender. As Bullock recalled, it was on the set of a movie she made 10 years ago, which she didn’t name. :”It was the worst experience I ever had,” Bullock said.

Sandra Bullock is a great example of what many young girls believe growing up, but their ideas ultimately get shattered systemically as opposed to Sandra Bullock’s one isolated incident. I believe that raising young boys and girls akin to how Sandra Bullock was raised is the best way to extract sexist behavior from our social and economic systems. Sandra is right when she says the pay gap is a byproduct of these unequal beliefs towards women and their rights, and if people were raised in the mindset of equality and to take away the naivety surrounding this mindset would be earth shattering and raise a much healthier mental and societal environments. It does upset me that people succumb to the idea that world is unfair because the reality of the situation is that it doesn’t have to be. Systemic issues are brought to realization of personal actions, and if those persons were conditioned and raised to believe in equality, equality would be a byproduct of society.
