The Big Lie I’m tired of hearing is how women earn less than men because of Men Keeping Them Down and outright Discrimination.
Nevermind the fact that there are entire INDUSTRIES that are primarily worked by men - lumberjacks, miners, police, firemen - that are inherrently dangerous, and therefore have higher rates of compensation.
Biology dictates that a women will spend less time on the job.
If women wanted to be honest - they would give the guys credit for putting in more hours (and I’m speaking in general terms of course - there are women who don’t have children & don’t take extended Leaves)
Is it wrong for employers to give men credit for time served?
Is a woman being “punished” if she doesn’t get the same raise he received?
And exactly WHEN did it become the employer’s job to pretend she is “there” when she isn’t?
And I’ve had several children so I know how hard it is to try and keep up - but I can’t deny that everyone that didnt go on Leave had to work harder during that time.
And once many women have one or two children - they may not WANT to climb the ladder with ruthless ambition.
The liberals accuse us of not being “nuanced” - but they can sure break down a cim
Whoops! Dang phone.
... They can break down a complicated issue into a moronic soundbite for political purposes.
