Damn, first time I'm hearing that women can't choose their majors in college but for some reason men can!
What kind of learned helplessness wokeist bullshit is this?
It's no wonder this country has gone to the capitalists. Idiotic arguments like this are at the forefront of every left movement. "Women can't do anything! They can't choose their own careers!" Left leaning people just like to shoot themselves in the foot and say, "I blame the right!" You could, you know, maybe fight for something and actually choose a direction in life rather than being a victim of everything.
Where's the old left that would actually fight and kill for their rights? This country fucking sucks.
- afavour 11mo agoWhat a ridiculous response. My objection is to explaining away observed data with unsupported assertion. There is a pay gap = fact The pay gap is largely attributable to women working in fields that pay less = fact Women work in these fields because they choose to = unsupported assertion Dress it up in some internal dialogue you have with yourself about “left” “right” and “woke” if you wish but it doesn’t speak to my point at all. You’re just settling on an answer that feels right to you and shutting down any further thought. “Everybody knows it’s true” is pure laziness.
- xigoi 11mo ago> Women work in these fields because they choose to = unsupported assertion The assertion is supported by the fact that in most modern countries, women are free to choose what school they’ll go to.
- afavour 11mo agoAnd you’re saying that is the only factor that would determine what job someone does?
