Reply to comment by Autistom in Gender pay gap difference in select geographies [OC] by Ok_Acanthisitta5799

I can’t help but feel like you still have a pretty basic misunderstanding of what the words “gender pay gap” describe.

An evil overlord is not really part of it.

Oh I think we agree on the fact that women preffered professions are paid less, even though not intentionally and that can be a meaning of these words.

But what most people take of the “pay gap” is that women are somehow paid less regardless of the profession and that is wrong and has severe consequences in the society.

That is literally the meaning of those words. Anything else is just a failure to understand what the term was even referring to.

The term is literally used over and over for “women get paid less for doing the same thing a man does”…..it’s wrong and only gullible people fall for it

You have it ingrained in your head that businesses are so greedy but they only want to pay men….both can’t be true

Most people understand it. You and the others who think it’s an attack on men clearly don’t
