Seeing "feminists" complain about equal pay always infuriates me?

If women in high paying jobs earn less than their male counterparts because they are less likely to ask for raises, accept lower bonuses and renumeration packages then they only have themselves to blame, in the sense that no employer is going to pay more if they can get away with paying less. Women need to get the confidence to demand equitable and fair pay.

However, in general women earn less because they DO go for lower paid, more flexible jobs that allow them to both work and to care for their children.

The real question is why men are happy for women to take on the lion's share of child-care responsibilities and the negative impacts on their earning potential and career trajectory, yet complain when women are compensated for that loss of earning potential in the case of divorce?

You cannot have it both ways.

Feminists just want something to complain about. They want to use any little thing to justify a reason their movement should exist.

The wage gap has been debunked time and time again. It is quite irritating for them to constantly complain about a nonexistent problem.

Men are more likely to go into higher paying jobs. It has nothing to do with gender. This is why people see an illusion that women are somehow paid less.

However why are women given affirmative action for just being women? Why are there women only scholarships?

There is a gender bias against men that they ignore.

Women have equal rights and get special privileges.

Feminists have non issues on their agenda:

Wage gap- Disproven

Sexual objectification- Non issue because it effects both genders and sex always sells.

Rape culture- Myth

Women also have a law protecting them from domestic violence and men don't. Why don't they see the problem here? It's not gender neutral it's anti-male.

Feminists propaganda brainwashes people into believing women are still oppressed when they are far from it. They have more legal rights than men.

Yes - we all know it is absolute nonsense and nobody gets paid less for the same work etc, but some get paid less than others for different jobs, effort and conditions.

You know - there is a serious wage gap against me compared to women who are hand-fed into the public service where I used to work - difference is I earned my way.....didn't just get it handed to me as part of some dumb social experiment and discriminatory government policy.

ADDS:- If there is a 'hiring bias' there must be very good reasons for it - as for 'wage bias' - the thing would be reporting different jobs etc, not the same work input overall etc. I'd hardly say the 'wage bias' exists when the same newspaper cites women under 25 as earning more than men under 25.

Maybe the paper is not sure what its other hand is doing when it makes these generalised statements based on on-fact, but isn't it odd that not one such article ever favours men?

"All mainstream media is propaganda' - Gore Vidal, live on late night television.

oooh let me guess, another video about women "making different choices".

like there is totally no sexism involved in women being the ones burdened with the majority of childcare and "making the choice" to care for them rather than letting them starve, and there is totally no sexism involved in repeatedly telling girls all their school lives that they inherently suck at math and science because their brains are not "built to understand it" like boys brains are and then saying no discrimination is involved when they then avoid fields involving those things.

okay dudebro. WHATEVER YOU SAY.

"'Feminists are Sexist' Clearly didn't watch the video"

i did just watch it, and i was completely correct in what the "argument" was, just as i knew i would be, because this dumb argument gets trotted out, oh about a million times a day, and has been demolished about that many times.

Studies have shown that there absolutely is a hiring and wage bias against females, and female employers are just as guilty as males for this bias against other females.

That is a fantastic video. Too bad the feminist will just stick their fingers in their ears and say "you're lying, you're sexist, you're lying!"
