It tells us either: there are a handful of professions that are drawing down the average. OR: That a pervasive wage gap exists.
Either is unacceptable, don't you agree?
Why are you so eager to assert the labor of women is obviously worth less?
- seattle_spring 9y ago> Why are you so eager to assert the labor of women is obviously worth less? What an insane and condescending assumption. I support focusing effort on training women for high paying jobs. I support researching why women don't study STEM degrees as much as men, and working to mitigate that gap. I do not, however, support paying those that study less valuable "feel-good" degrees more money just because more women choose to go down that path. And finally, I don't need to actively "support" women making the same as men within the same professions, because that's already the reality we live in.
- sokoloff 9y agoI don't agree that every profession should make the same amount of money. If that's what you find unacceptable, I find it acceptable.
