| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapIs someone that you work for as a salaried professional allowed to say to you "you must come in and work this weekend without pay or you are fired" ? If so then fair enough that's a discussion that should be had. I'm not against changing our work environment through collective and legislative action. It happens all the time like you said. But in order for it to happen, people have to make it happen. And I am unconvinced that enough people want these changes to happen right now. I am also unconvi… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 07:01 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapAs far as I know, it's law in most,if not all western, developed countries that unpaid overtime is not allowed. Do companies get away with shitty things to cut costs because they know that Joe Schmo isn't going to have the funds to fight a legal battle with their army of lawyers? of course they do. However the choice to not take up that battle still falls upon the individual. And it's a winnable fight if the law is actually on your side. At the very least you could stir up some public outrage ab… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 05:35 AM |
| 5 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapAnd what do you suppose we do about that? Tell people to stop socializing how they do because it's "not fair?" Edit: Also you can deal with peer pressure while both going along with it and defying it. All of us do both of those multiple times every single day, and most of us are still functioning people. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 05:18 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapHey turns out we agree on that one! PM me if you ever wanna talk about anything else, I love reasonable argument. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 05:14 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapSo why does it mean that you or I can dictate to a man that he shouldn't be doing a certain job? To use your example, someone might tell a gay man he "shouldn't be gay" because they genuinely believe that being gay is detrimental to that person and to society at large. I would argue that someone would be arguing against men making certain career choices for the same reasons. That doesn't make them right. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 05:07 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapThis is my point exactly. You're arguing for something that essentially already exists, by saying that you don't see it exist enough for you personally to feel like men are taking enough time off. You took a flex day and had fun. Just like most if not all men working are able to do. Some don't take them, and you think that's a weird/wrong decision, but so what? they're allowed to make that choice. The harm in "trying it" is I'm not a fan of social engineering just for shits and giggles. I'd like… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 05:02 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapI would argue it would be just as easy to push all the family and home work onto the man in a relationship, it's just that most couples seem to decide that the woman takes the primary care role. Lack of equal parental leave seems to be the only concrete thing that would directly prevent this. In theory, a woman could have her child and head straight back to a full time well paying job upon recovery, and leave the father at home as the primary caretaker, and do just as well as a family with the g… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:54 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapI specifically left paternity leave out of my question. Just because everyone isn't okay with how things are doesn't mean MOST people aren't. And unfortunately that's how we operate in a just democracy. My assertion, I suppose, though I'm not that sure of it, is that if everyone followed your last line of advice (i.e. take the time off you want to, or don't), we'd see very similar distribution numbers to what we do today. I'd even go so far as to say most people already conduct themselves this w… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:47 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapCan you expand upon how you think broad strokes are useful when you also say that we shouldn't judge individual men and women based on their individual life choices just because we see the job as awful/stereotypical? | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:36 AM |
| -1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapI would need you to better define "father friendly jobs." I could argue that any job that pays a man enough to support a family under reasonably agreed upon working conditions is a "father friendly job" | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:32 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapI've never looked into that personality defining system cause I tend not to like those kinds of things. Is it worth looking into? | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:28 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapAll we can do at this point is look at the statistics of the way things are and make judgements based upon those. I never said everyone is okay with this. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:27 AM |
| 3 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapI concede that my point about personal fulfillment derived from pressure was shortsighted, thank you for showing me that. I just worry about people seeing what looks to them like an awful job, when in reality it could be that person's dream job, and thereby concluding that the person working that job is "worse off" somehow. So much comes down to personal preference and nature that painting in broad strokes becomes messy. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 04:18 AM |
| 5 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapWe shouldn't write off unreasonable pressure but perhaps we should let each person define "unreasonable pressure" for themselves. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:57 AM |
| 7 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapDebatable for sure. I would argue that some men have it worse, some women have it worse, and what might look like "having it worse" or "making too big of a sacrifice" to you or I may be exactly what gives that person their sense of meaning. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:46 AM |
| 3 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapAnd I've worked jobs that wouldn't? I fail to see your point. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:45 AM |
| 2 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapAgreed. Peer pressure exists as a motivating force in people's decision making. But is it the only factor? Is it even the strongest factor? And what are you suggesting we do about it? Is it even negative? | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:39 AM |
| 6 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapBut is it unfair? Or are the sacrifices men and women must make in order to support a family together simply different? Edit: spelling. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:32 AM |
| 1 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapCitation needed | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:29 AM |
| 38 | Another Perspective on the Wage GapBecause, on average, they don't seem to want to? Isn't that up to them? Aside from paternity leave of course which is obviously a legal issue. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 13/04/17 03:14 AM |
| 1 | This female teacher pretended to be a 14 year old girl to accuse a male teacher of sexually abusing her. No jail time for this calculated attempt to destroy a man's life.Would you mind editing you original comment to reflect that it is 11 weeks? Just to avoid possible misinformation. | /r/MensRights | 01/02/17 09:40 PM |
