University degree is not a good metrics - who cares about English literature majors or many other degrees that are next to useless in a marketplace and only indebt their students?
I think the stats I've read about were true for major cities (even smaller ones); in some the difference was up to 30%. So having a median 8% compound interest in ~7 years (1.7x multiplier) should give some nice cushion for having kids if women wisely plan for that and don't expect to get handouts from government once they are pregnant. For countryside that seems to be a different story, but there more traditional roles still work and men are more often responsible for keeping family alive and well financially.
If we want to govern wisely, we should stop squeezing every single area where women can get some benefit and look at it holistically; men are starting to get fed up with more and more demands and society can't really function well when one half of population is always treated with more priority than the other (easier admissions/exams at universities, easier hiring process, higher income during best years, less demanding work etc.).
- ggggtez 9y agoThis response reads like nonsense. I think you are so impassioned that you forgot to link your unrelated ideas together. There first sentence you wrote disagrees with everything else you said. The point is there study above oversampled college educated women 3:2. If you want to weigh the sample by which degree as well, then that would help get more comparable numbers too. But this study which claims 8% better for single women, clearly doesn't support your delusional follow up.
