In General, Norway and the United States are almost the same when it comes to gender equality. I feel that there is more gender equality in the United States, but not by much. The Quota Law enacted by Norway is a good example of how they are striving for gender equality. I think that many other countries should try to do this as well. As for pay, women will always make less than men, I think. Women in the US make 23% less on average than men. As for women leaders, Norway takes the lead. Their prime minister, Erna Solberg, is one of the very few women leaders. The United States still has yet to see a woman president, and although Hilary Clinton didnt win, I think it shows a lot about gender equality in the U.S. In general, Norway has more woman leaders than the U.S but the U.S has more women in the workplace.
