Unemployment for men is under 4% so I'm not sure how that separates the issue of the pay gap from the men in this study. Put another way, >96% of men have income from employment. And according to the study, desired income vs real income was the biggest difference according to the women. Clearly, >96% of men are making far less than desired according to the women surveyed.
- mirimir 7y ago> Unemployment for men is under 4% ... Official unemployment data aren't reliable. Mainly because they ignore people who aren't actively looking for work. Typically because they've given up, or won't accept what's on offer. Women do have high standards, according to this study. Somewhat implausibly high, I admit.
- xtiansimon 7y agoI think peeps are forgetting the long term impact to one’s career from bouts of long term unemployment. How many bounced right back from 2008? Combine with student debt, rising home prices, and the fact you’re not getting any younger, then in 10 years you’re not 28, but 38. You have a job, but you’re making less at 40 then you did at 30. And you’re not supposed to ‘trust’ anyone over 30. (>_<)
