Question

What is the best description of the phrase “the glass ceiling”?

Answer 1

A glass ceiling is a metaphor used to represent an invisible barrier that keeps a given demographic (typically applied to minorities) from rising beyond a certain level in a hierarchy. The metaphor was first coined by feminists in reference to barriers in the careers of high-achieving women

Answer 2

The best description of the glass ceiling would be something that limits what your allowed to do and it's something that you can help. for example as a black person if my name sounds to black I might not be granted a job because I'm black which is something I can't change
