The Gender Pay Gap myth, despite being debunked numerous times by Forbes, CBS News, the Wall Street Journal, numerous economists, and even feminists, just refuses to die. Oddly, Time magazine itself debunked this myth in 2016, but has published two articles in The Current Year titled Here Is the Gender Pay Gap in Every US State and 1 in 3 Americans Don’t Know That a Gender Wage Gap Exists.
The misleading titles are not backed up by facts. The authors even admit the largest single explanation for the variance between average female pay and average male pay is due to the type of employment each sex selects, followed by birthrates and childcare duties.
Differences do not indicate oppression
The fact that one demographic group, whether it be Asians, women, teenagers, former military soldiers, or black lesbian trannies, earns a different salary, on average, from another demographic group, should be of no surprise. Indeed, it is to be expected, particularly in a society where salaries are set competitively based on market interactions.
Symbols of the Oppressive Patriarchy
Expecting the same average prices in the labor market for varied labor is as ridiculous as expecting the same average prices in the supermarket for peanuts and avocados. Different products, whether they be labor, or foods, have different prices. The fact that average labor prices (wages) vary across various industries is a fact of life everywhere in the world.
And the fact that males on average, are paid a higher price for their labor, does not reject the value of women’s labor, any more than a peanut is seen as worthless next to an avocado because it costs less.
Career Choices Matter
Women choose to enter certain industries which are appealing to them. Women I know have recently graduated with degrees in interior design, fashion, Spanish language, government, and accounting. They chose those specific fields because there was something interesting or enjoyable about either the subject matter, or the job opportunities offered. Are these the most high paying jobs? Perhaps not, but salary information was certainly available and these women still decided that they would prefer interior decorating over computer programming.
Not all of these workers are paid the same. How evil!
A Modest Proposal
Of course, if women want true parity with men, then they should give up their freedom to choose their job and let them be assigned equally to the labor pool. Starting tomorrow, 50% of all garbagemen, soldiers, lawyers, doctors, taxi drivers, janitors, and mine workers should be female. And if you’re going to keep my salary the same, I’ll gladly become an elementary schoolteacher with summers off, and a work day ending at 3PM.
Remember: This is awesome and rewarding, this is awesome and rewarding…
But what if some woman don’t want to handle garbage, don’t want to take up arms and kill others in strange places for their (((greatest ally))), don’t want to study for years and work the long hours that are required to become licensed attorneys or doctors, don’t want to work the late nights and face the personal risks of driving a taxicab, don’t want to clean and handle waste, or subject their more fragile bodies to the dangerous and deadly work inside mines?
Sorry, but feminism dictates in the name of equality that they must be forced to do so. But even then, while that would bring average salaries much closer to men, we are still not there yet.
Childrearing Explains Much of The Wage Variance
In the name of Wage Equality, women should no longer choose this
As the NY Times explained this month, childrearing is one of the largest explanations of the variance in men’s and women’s earnings. As women are the only humans currently able to gestate and give birth, in the name of equality women must also forego reproduction. After all, the childrearing duties of women account for approximately a 10-year delay in women’s pay to match that of men. Until science finds a way for men to bear children, women, in the name of equality, can no longer reproduce, so that they may achieve the holy grail of equal pay to men.
But what if some women don’t care about equal pay? Couldn’t that explain why some of them choose part time careers, or jobs that pay less, or choose to—gasp—not even work for globalist corporations at all, but instead focus on being a loving wife and caring mother? If childbirth is a major cause in the wage gap, in the name of feminism, it should be ended.
Ironically, one of the authors, Debra Ness, is president of the National Partnership for Women and Families. What could be more anti-family and damaging to children than pursuing equal pay for mothers and fathers?
Where Does It Stop?
Inequality is to be expected in life. On my street, some houses sell for higher prices than mine would; others for lower. Some people drive a more expensive car than mine; some a cheaper one. Some people bang uglier girls than me, some prettier. People in each of the 50 states, on average, earn different wages than each other state. That does not mean that 25 of the states are oppressing the other 25, or that we should try to correct these variances.
Look at all this geographic inequality! Geography must be stopped!
And indeed if we did attempt to equalize wages, by tackling the root causes that feminists like the author of the above article herself admit, directly cause lower wages, then we would make women unhappy and unsafe, by forcing them to do dangerous, unpleasant, or simply unwanted jobs.
Why Focus on Money?
Here’s a pro tip for women. Once your basic needs are met, money has been proven to have very little impact on happiness. If you want to be truly happy, set out to accomplish something rewarding in your life, whether that is volunteering for a cause you believe in, pursuing art or music or dance, becoming the first great hilarious female comedian, or raising a family of loving, caring children under the protection of a man who honors and respects you.
Instead of measuring your success by the size of your paycheck, choose a more meaningful metric. You will be far happier, and chances are, the emotional rewards you receive will be unmatched by the highest salary at the fanciest corner cubicle in the best office building in your city.
The latest propaganda articles were sad, half-hearted efforts to throw out some headlines and raw data without any analysis or explanation, and hope that if you repeat the wage gap lie enough, we will believe it. We don’t. Feminists, equality in wages is not something you want. It is not something you will enjoy. Be careful what you wish for! You just might get it.

The problem with the wage gap is that it is not wide enough…in most circumstances a women should never make more than 50% of what a man earns.
The only jobs women should be doing is things like stacking shelves at the supermarket in the early years of their marriage before having children.
It helps her pay for her own food, gas, and girlie things (cosmetics, etc) and most importantly, it gets her out of the house at the same time your at work, and not tempted to download the Tinder app to match with unemployed alpha loser Chad Thundercock or Mandingo because she’s “bored” and “unhaaaaapy”
Paying for a car + the gas+ rent + food + maintenance of physical appearance WAS doable with a supermarket shelf stacker salary back in the 1950’s. Not to mention that women need much higher ‘maintenance’ budgets.
A good quality lipstick is $20, and not the expensive brand type. A good face cream is the same. Manicures, pedicures, pantyhose, gym, having a social life (occasionally eating out or having a drink with friends) cost money. Maybe the industries have unjustifiably increased their prices given women’s inclination for overspending and competing among themselves, but the reality is that stuff is expensive. You want a good looking woman? She needs money for maintenance and clothes. You want to meet women? They need money for clothes, cab fare, entrance, dinner/drinks/whatever. And I’m not talking about Kim Kardashian wannabes who buy expensive trinkets or brand purses and the latest iPhone on the release day.
“A good quality lipstick is $20, and not the expensive brand type. A good face cream is the same. Manicures, pedicures, pantyhose, gym, having a social life (occasionally eating out or having a drink with friends) cost money.”
Married women don’t need this shit, they need to stay at home raising the children. My mother and grandmother didn’t need any of this shit, and they made their own face creams. Social life is the mom next door chatting over the fence.
Totally true article. Here in the UK the thing has reared its ugly head again, thanks to our female Prime Minister desperately seeking votes. There’s even a new female political party ‘dedicated’ to the whole equalisation of pay parity etc. Strangely enough it’s fronted by a bunch of super wealthy buisness women and ‘celebrities’ desperate for an even greater piece of the pie. When I mean celebrities, of course I mean female TV presenters, ‘comedians’ and news readers desperately trying to force their bloated pay packets up a notch or two at the ever more alienating BBC. So yet another example of a group of one per centers valiantly fighting their economic corners at the expense of the over taxed majority forced to pay for a left wing institution utterly out of touch with a nation beyond London. Make them empty the bins, I say. All in the name of equality of course.
The fact of the matter is, if women want equal pay, they have to do equal work. And that means putting in a full 9-5 day plus overtime (I work a minimum 10 hour day). And that means work. Most of the women at my company are serial “work from home” and “call in sick” types. Equal Pay, equal treatment means just that, with no exceptions.
There are about 15 people on my team. 5 are women. Today it is a nice day out, probably the first in a few weeks. Guess how many are “working from home” today? 4 out of 5. Guess how many told the manager in advance? None. Guess how many had pictures of them working outside either at cafes, bars, or a restaurant doing a “late lunch” on social media? All. Guess who have been largely offline since after lunch? The women working from home. They won’t even pick up their cell phones despite we received an “urgent” work request from the CFO and most of it can only be completed in the office. They won’t even pick up their phones to handle the 20% that can be done outside. That means late night work for me and about half the team tonight.
I know I make about 20% more then most of the women on the team with similar positions. Wonder why my boss is willing to give me raises come review time and might hold these women at the same rate of pay?
Jeff,
You still covering for them,which makes you part of the problem.
What I don’t understand is WHY do you cover up for them?
Let them face the heat.
Let the client and boss give them a thorough understanding of what is expected of them if they want to keep the job.
A certain level of productivity is expected of EVERYONE on the team…..and that includes these cupcakes.
WTF do you mean they don’t pick up the phone?
If you are wfh you are required to be available for the same duration as the people who are in office.
It’s this kind of lenient behavior on part of the Project Lead that these bitches take for granted.
Jeff, your article really spoke to me. I have had countless jobs, office and other, where the women do next to nothing, other than bitch and moan constantly. The worst of these by far are those with female managers.
Having once worked for my local council authority, I can attest to just how lazy, nasty and damn right fucking useless these cunts are. There were thee of them in my bloated department. Two and a half if you count the one on partial return from Maternity leave. She was meant to do half a week over three days. When she even bothered turning up she normally strolled in about half ten in her squash outfit, sat in the office talking to the other managers for the rest of the morning before going to an early lunch. We normally didn’t see her after that.
I can’t tell you how much I despise these arrogant cunts, suckling from the teat of the state. Only God knows how much she was earning for doing sweet fuck all.
This is true.
We work harder.
We work better.
We lead.
We innovate.
We challenge.
We cooperate.
And they talk.
No, seriously, in every office I’ve been to the women are given an absolute free pass to chat for as many hours as they like with whomever, and that’s about 90% of the work they do all day.
Not saying I dislike it, I don’t. In fact, after 2 hours of solid concentration it’s sometimes good to take 5, and guys just love talking about work when they’re taking a break from working. I do it too. Women, on the other hand… which makes them a perfect 5 minute distraction, even if it’s talking to the granny about whatever the fuck.
And they talk.
Yup, that’s it. Nothing else. Ever
“This myth won’t die.” Well, of course not. All of feminism is based on myth. Men and women are exactly the same? That’s another big myth.
Men are Women are equal, but some women are more equal than men.
Some women are more superior than other women, but all women are equal to their inferiority to superior men.
It comes down to no one is equal to another. Speaking of myths, the idea of “equality” is the biggest of all.
Now, equality under law…that’s ideal and no myth, as it were. But feminist do not believe in that. They actually think they’re exactly the same as men. In fact now they think they’re better.
The truth is this – Preatos distribution and Price’s law. Remember just as many women are outside of these distributions as men.
If you are female, challenge me to a physical fight and let’s see how it ends. Then we can have a nice conversation about equality afterwards.
American hookers are overpaid whores. I fuck a high class whore in Europe for $40!
Yall niggrs suck my cuck
Ill fight you soy boy bich. Squeeze your tits too
Forget fighting. Let’s just talk about work and pay. Since women are 50% of the workforce, let’s see them be 50% of coal miners, roofers, construction crews, maintenance workers down in the sewers, auto and truck mechanics, high voltage linemen, concrete workers and bricklayers, ship captains, commercial fishermen, etc., etc., etc.
Fuck, I’d be impressed if they would even comprise 10% of the peeps doing those jobs. Then we’ll talk about equal pay.
Career Choices Matter
women devalue every career they become the majority , there is a reason farm veterinarians are men and cat, dogs and fish veterinarians women, both are in the same field, but guess who earn more and who is willing to submerge their arm in cowshit. Women devalue the job because they work less hour, they are less committed to the job, they are unwilling to travel, unwilling to change residence, unwilling to take risk, unwilling to touch shit, unwilling to be separated more than 5 days from their kids and unwilling to do things outside in the sun in summer. Of course I will pay more to the guy who are working sacrificing more than women. In the north pole there are jobs for cooks and cleaning jobs, taking out the trash, keeping clean the floor and tables, the jobs is for 3 month to 6 months in a place with no sun for 6 months, a lot of snow and cold, and you will be trapped there for months, guess how many cleaning ladies are there? then compare that to the women working in hotels in their hometown where there is no risk and the jobs at one bus ticket to their homes, you can see your family everyday but the pay is shit, then if we sum the average the men working in north pole station will increase the average, then women will cry and will want to equalize the pay, then there is no incentive for people to work in the north pole anymore. and the hotels will be be unable to raise the wages increasing the cost to the consumer. the left can´t do math.
did I also mention I love cock? no? well now you know
Women would rather serve their corporate masters than help their husbands and children.
“Mommy!!! Mommy!!! I wish you would spend even more time at work!!!”, said no little kid ever.
“Mommy, why is that man waiting for you on your bed?” – “Oh don’t worry sweetie that’s just my boss, you’ll understand when you have a job years from now trust me”
Send the kids to the gas chambers.
You and your constant shitposting should be punishable by death.
now i realize rok commenters are ignorant,they have nothing to offer,red pill men are the least of men.they achieve nothing only whinings and complains
Ok STFU, Professor Faggot-Ass.
Right. We’re “ignorant” Because we acknowledge that men and women are different. Because, after all, biology, DNA, scientific method, reason and reality itself…those are ignorant products of the “patriarchy”. You know what. You’re just a loser who is bitter at the world because in all likelihood, your unmateable.
guy,i’m not against patriachy neither do i think that men and women are the same,but you guys only talk down on those you feel are against you such as women and Africans,but you guys dont back your words with actions.
I said getting married and having kids in the U.S. is foolish for men. I got married in Vietnam. Observation followed by action.
Since you now realize that we are “ignorant,” hopefully you will stop posting here. Especially your delusional posts about how young, more educated Africans are going to transform that continent into a success story. LMFAO.
It’s been a while since I looked but I believe that 92% of work place fatalities are suffered by men. When I hear a feminist address that statistic then I’ll give a fuck about their pay gap.
Women love to work in the corporate world because in essence it is a continuation of the social politics learned throughout high school, plus they get to enjoy air conditioning and a place to sit down all day…. the construction site offers none of these perks.
and they want it for free, no effort no competition and no merit. just give it to me because patriarchy. Success can be measured, the method is competition, women are less successful not because of some strange force keeping her down, is because they suck when they compete against men in every single field where men took an interest to participate. Third wave feminist are just Marxist socialist, redistribute the good stuff from the ones who have (men) to the one who have not (women). They just want equal outcome but not equal work for it. men and women have equality, but equality of opportunity you can be and do whatever you want and equality as a person by law. equal outcome can not be achieved because people are different you either will need to push people to do stuff they will not be happy doing and force people to give thing for free just for having a vagina or penis. You know who else force people to do work in the name of equality? communists, the communist will tell you comrade we don´t need more female nurses we have to much nurses, we need more civil engineers the country need more bridges not more nurses so you will be a civil engineer, for equality comrade. then you will have a lot of unhappy people.
As someone who has been in this world for half a century, I have watched the nation’s economy go down in flames after being flown into a mountain.
Just where I live it’s a dead zone with almost every major employer gone.
Necessities have gone up in price, real wages have gone down, with what jobs there are being mostly minimum wage.
We have a deficit of over 22 TRILLION dollars. If Bill Gates liquidated his wealth into cash he probably couldn’t even pay off the interest. There are a thousand billions in one trillion, and a thousand millions in one billion. Now, what’s the GDP? It’s not a pretty picture.
And of course the growing trade deficit with Communist China…
So- what does the media, and the idiot feminists choose to do? Complain about a “wage gap” that doesn’t exist. maybe aging Baby Boomers are pushing this as a distraction from just how badly they wrecked the economy.
Imagine a nation, and America isn’t the only one, owing 22 trillion dollars to a private group of Zionist J3ws.
As napoleon once said “When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes.”
But if white nations die in any way where will Israel be? The power on this planet will be the northeast Asians, and they will not be intimidated in any way by any such people. You certainly cannot bash them with talk of the Holocaust; whatever else the Japanese may have been guilty of in the Second World War that was not part of it, and as for China and other Asian countries, well, they cannot be bullied either.
They will have seen what did in the Western World- no matter who or what it was, or some combination, and take steps to make certain it does NOT happen there.
And when you look back at the 20th century, you’ll see that Asians were some of the toughest customers Americans ever had to deal with. Don’t ever underestimate Asians, trust me. In computer class this white guy was second only to an Asian student.
Women want work equality? Get your fat twat down there in the coal mine.
It wont die because its easy rhetoric. Feminists keep pushing it because most people. especially men today fear being socially ostracized for challenging it.
Its kinda like when a retard enters the room and you have to pinch yourself so you don’t laugh.
The decision-making (((Marxist Socialists))) — 99.9% of whom are men — have 1 real goal: the destruction of the family unit, which creates quick decay of society. So-called Feminism is just one tool to accomplish this. Feminism was/is created, developed, financed and managed by (((Marxist men))) almost exclusively, although they hand-picked some (((tribal females))) to play various phony roles, such as authors, activists and professors. Betty Friedan, Gertrude Stein, Gloria Steinem, Naomi Klein, Andrea Dworkin and dozens of others have all played their roles well.
The irony is that 99% of women are unable to discern that Feminism is incredibly harmful to women and their children. They are continually getting played (emotionally) with ridiculous canards, such as the gender pay gap, and completely unable to understand the cause / effect of such malicious political movements.
This article about the alleged disparity in wages for men and women reminds me of something that occurred to me many years ago as a much younger man. I worked in a steel fabrication shop that built custom conveyor systems. After some intense overtime to get a huge job completed, I was exhausted, and early one morning, accidentally cut my knee with a 4″ hard back disc electric grinder while grinding on some welds I had made. The cut was deep, but the wound was cauterize from the aluminum oxide grinding disc. I drove myself to an industrial clinic with my knee wrapped with shop rags as bandages. The clinic looked like a scene out of a civil war field hospital. All I saw were men, both young and old. Men holding their eyeballs in, men with fingers sheared off, men with broken bones, men screaming and crying like babies from all sorts of industrial injuries. Two big orderlies threw me on a gurney and wheeled me into a room. A female Indian doctor immediately tended to my wound. While she painstakingly removed little slivers of the grinding disc from my knee, a middle age female RN entered the room, and made a wise crack that these injured men were big cry babies, and they certainly earned more money than women. Even in my pain, I told the doctor that I didn’t want to listen to this disrespect. The doctor immediately snapped at her “leave now, you are upsetting my patient”! “Whatever”, replied the RN as she left. The female doctor told me “I dislike the feminism here in America; I like the old traditional ways”. Wow! She cleaned the wound, sutured and bandaged it, and gave me some pain pills for when the anesthesia wore off. It hurt like blue blazes that night. Today I have a huge discolored scar across my right knee as a reminder.
Lol @ “becoming the first great hilarious female comedian”
So I am a woman who has worked my whole adult life up until the last year when I had my son. My husband is who supports all 6 of us (because he’s a man) wants his kids to have a mother and wants to actually see his wife. My last job I worked at was customer service at a manufacturing company. I worked in an office at a desk with AC in the summer and heat in the winter. One day some new guy on the floor was bitching about having to be there on a Saturday to push a broom and the cuck was mad about how I’d be at home with my kid (single mom at the time). I lit into this little shit telling him that I make $10/hr less to be able to live the life that I want and to quit bitching. If he didn’t like it then get a different job. That being said I have never thought that it was unfair that he made more than me. I took a paycut to live that life and sacrificed having comforts to support my kid. It’s not his fault that that’s where my priorities were. The fact is that this “wage gap” is nothing more then the modern day feminist being unmarriable whining assholes. For those who say but we have to groom ourselves so that justifies us earning more you’re pathetic. Paint your own nails and if you have to wear makeup to get a guy then just give up and buy a cat.
How do you know how much that guy made?
Because he was at an entry level position at the plant I worked for. It was standard information that everyone knew. Just the way the environment was there. My problem was that the “gap” in wages was completely justified. He was being compensated for the inconvienece that the job possessed and was still whining about it. I bet he’s a feminist for woman lol.
Alphafemale, I get what you are saying. I work in the healthcare field and having no children allowed me to work overtime and get my pay raises. I accept and respect women make the choice to raise their kids. I do not like the type of guys that you talked about in your story. I really do not care if male coworkers get paid more then me. I know one male coworker who has the same liscense as me but gets paid more. I am not upset about it since he is a great help. He has helped me with difficult to move residents and his help has kept me from getting hurt. I got nothing against children but decided never to be a single mom. I would not want a man who will not be a father to his children. I also have no need for a guy who is just wants sex. It may seem women have it easier job wise but a good woman is suppose to be there for her children and family.
Funny how they never talk about how women WANT to be the child rearer.
Also amusing how they seem to spend 3 times more money than men on personal luxury items. Where are they getting the money? Are they stealing it.

This book covers it all: https://www.amazon.com/Why-Men-Earn-More-Startling/dp/0814472109/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491406946&sr=8-1&keywords=why+men+earn+more
The US feels like the Twilight zone today.
The elites are destroying the USA through debt, wars, and tyranny and Americans either don’t know or do not want to know.
Most of those who are awake either think Fascism is the American way or think that Communists never killed anyone.
When the US collapses and the revolution starts will Americans kill the politicians, police, soldiers, Jews, billionaires, reporters, actors, liberals, Muslims, blacks, feminists, or illegal aliens? Everyone?
Americans seem to sense that they are on the Titanic.
If you go outside today, you’ll see that many Americans look shell-shocked.
The homeless look broken.
The young people look either ignorant, sullen, or apathetic.
Girls are either fat or sluts.
White men are often either angry, silent, or have a sense of humor.
White-collar bankers, stockbrokers, and insurance agents seem to have fake laughs.
Some preppers seem to think they will be safe when the shit hits the fan because the USA is a big country, but being a large nation didn’t stop the USSR from being locked down. Modern times are even worse than the Cold War because of surveillance cameras and satellites and there are no more countries to flee to.
Maybe the only hope we have is that either the ruling class becomes sane soon or the 1% manages to kick the debt can down the road for another 50 years.
Women on average live longer than men. Feminists would be upset and vocal if it was the other way around. Car insurance is more expensive for men too. A couple of examples of the bitch that didn’t bark.
A suggestion for women’s study researcher. Quantify the intrinsic monetary value for bearing a child and nurturing the child out of infancy. A lot of your wage gap would likely disappear right there.
Another problem with all of this “tough-talk” feminism is…REALITY.
More and more women are complaining that when they are in trouble men no longer help them.
Well, what did they expect with all of the hostility and brainwashing? See a woman being beat up? Hey, they’re so tough she can handle herself (REALITY: if it was this broken-down 51-year-old do you think that 20-year-old feminist would help me? No- I’d be on my own).
OR- if you hate me that much, Ms. Steinman, why should I help you? Why not ask a black guy to help a Klansman while you’re at it?
A good comeback to this wage gap rubbish is this: if women are paid less then why don’t the big, greedy corporations- you know, the ones Trump loves so much- just fire the men and hire the eternal-victim women in order to save billions? Or is their “sexism” worth more than all of that extra money?
Watch the cognitive dissonance set in and stand back…
