Kid is Viciously Attacked By Feminazis ...

[Kidlicious]

I would think that if you can't prove that they are unequal that you shouldn't base their pay on that. Otherwise you must assume they're equal.

If you accuse men of discriminating against women and of not recognizing their priviledge shouldn't you be expected to back that up with a reasonable argument, not just make assumptions based on your feelings?

Everyone recognizes that women and men shop differently and one way is clearly more efficient than the other but that's not a political issue so we don't say they are equal.

So, the most recent data I could find has some good news and some bad news. This article summarizes what I've been able to find. The good news is this: the median salary for childless, single women under 30 is 8% higher than it is for similar men. The difference is attributed to the fact that women of that demographic are more likely to have a college degree than the men are. The bad news is this: if you control for education (and everything else that usually gets controlled for), these women are still making less than men. A year after college, women make 6.6% less than demographically similar men.

that's very interesting. thanks.

you may find this report useful too.

Here are the facts:

The pay gap hasn’t budged in a decade.
In 2012, as in 2002, among full-time, year-round workers, women were paid 77 percent of what men were paid.

Women in every state experience the pay gap, but some states are worse than others.
The best place in the United States for pay equity is Washington, D.C., where women were paid 90 percent of what men were paid in 2012. At the other end of the spectrum is Wyoming, the worst state in the country for pay equity, where women were paid just 64 percent of what men were paid.

The pay gap is worse for women of color.
Compared with non-Hispanic white men, Pacific Islander/Native Hawaiian women were paid 66 percent, African American women were paid 64 percent, American Indian/Alaska Native women were paid 60 percent, and Hispanic women were paid just 53 percent.

Women face a pay gap in nearly every occupation.
From elementary and middle school teachers to computer programmers, women are paid less than men in female-dominated, gender-balanced, and male-dominated occupations.

The pay gap grows with age.
Among younger workers, women are paid about 90 percent of what men are paid. From around age 35 through retirement, women are typically paid 75–80 percent of what men are paid.

While more education is an effective tool for increasing earnings, it is not an effective tool against the gender pay gap.
At every level of academic achievement, women’s median earnings are less than men’s earnings, and in some cases, the gender pay gap is larger at higher levels of education.

The pay gap also exists among women without children.
AAUW’s Graduating to a Pay Gap found that among full-time workers one year after college graduation — nearly all of whom were childless — women were paid just 82 percent of what their male counterparts were paid.

kid, this isn't where i got the figure from, i got it from memory, but you can consider it my source if you wish.

What?

I don't believe I did that.

Now admit that you just made this up. People shop differently. It doesn't necessarily follow gender lines.

Can you show me a study that shows equal productiviity? In a capitalist system productivity pays.

Lots of other factors come into play unless you think workers are never, ever exploited.

I don't believe I did that.

Err dude, recently in China a man jumped to his death because his wife wouldn't leave the mall. Are you trolling?

If you aren't saying men discriminate against women what ate you saying?

I would imagine that looking for sales can be more economically efficient for that particular person / family

Yeah that's what I mean. Or you can save time.

No

That's not gender specific, in either direction.

[Ben Kenobi]

The bad news is this: if you control for education (and everything else that usually gets controlled for), these women are still making less than men. A year after college, women make 6.6% less than demographically similar men.

Do they control for hours worked?

[Kidlicious]

That's not gender specific, in either direction.

Are you a long shopper? Have you been shopping to the point where your spouse killed themselves? Honestly I don't believe you but I'll post some sources after I eat. This is common knowledge.

[C0ckney]

No

yes.
