Eventually, equality means equality and not just women getting stuff. Life's a bitch that way.	/r/MensRights	02/03/21 05:44 AM

Wouldn't you? You hate men because they don't want to have to drive to see their own kids?

I can't take anyone seriously that says they're a feminist and throws that little tantrum about how it isn't about hating men. Its a shame honestly, the movement started for a good reason. Women needed to gain the vote. They needed equal rights. But now that they have it, modern feminism is all about criminalizing anything that women find even slightly annoying. A woman lost an election to her male competitor? Must be sexism and couldn't at all be attributed to more people that agree with …	/r/MensRights	14/08/20 10:20 AM
1	The cycle of arguing with feminsts So let me get this straight. You think that you don't have a right that you have that's written in law. You think men have the right "not to be a parent" but the law almost always forces men to pay for pregnancies they don't wish for...and WE'RE the ones that don't care about equality? And to boot, for pointing out that you do actually have the right to get an abortion that you claim you don't have under the law, I don't care about equality...hmm, ok. On top of that, because of my gender you don…	/r/MensRights	05/06/20 05:45 PM
3	The cycle of arguing with feminsts I completely disagree with the state governments that are attempting to limit abortion rights. In fact, I grabbed a sign and went and picketed the state capital when the courts agreed to see this newest challenge to Roe v. Wade. I'm a man so frankly whenever anyone says this is men's fault, I have to role my eyes. This isn't men's fault, it's Republican's fault. There are a lot of women that vote Republican, too. There are a lot of women that want to limit abortion of "moral" or religious ground…	/r/MensRights	05/06/20 05:26 PM
5	The cycle of arguing with feminsts Um...abortion is legal in all 50 states. Even the shit conservative states where THE PEOPLE (including women voters...y'all are 51% of the population so there's no excuse to blame men in power for the laws you elected into place) have elected leaders that have limited those rights. Men on the other hand have 0 say in whether or not a pregnancy goes to term. A man doesn't want to be a father? Tough shit, you're paying child support for the rest of your life. Both men and women had the sex, but on…	/r/MensRights	05/06/20 05:06 PM

"Young rich white woman with stay at home mother who's young life was funded entirely by her male parent that earned her millions for looking good and singing pop songs that other people write for her angry that men that make less than her while working an actual job that requires effort have things handed to them."

It has nearly disappeared since the 40s and continues to decrease. we don't need to do shit to correct the wage gap but keep in mind that there is a small wage gap that is worth correcting and keeping our eye on the ball while society progresses to resolve that problem, almost certainly within the current working generations lifetime. So like... Why the fucking hysteria, right?	/r/MensRights	27/02/20 05:24 AM

No, it isn't the same net effect, because the long-term effects of cortisol related to perceived descrimination cause contribute to death in populations that perceive themselves as being descrinated against by literally years of real human lives. This is a well-documented phenomenon, especially in African-American women. As a medical student you should know that and if you don't then you are not meeting your obligations as a health care practitioner.

Yeah you're right. I wouldn't mind if we found a way to close that 2%. I think that it is a goal worth calmly working towards because I don't think anyone rational believes that there should be a gap. The gap is just being portrayed as WAY more massive than it actually is and if we aren't being honest with what's going on then we won't fix it. I don't think it helps anyone to portray it as descrimination unless we actually know that's what it is...but we don't. That 2% is actually just unexplain…	/r/MensRights	27/02/20 04:53 AM

It sure can get confusing at times huh? I am trying to keep all of my remarks very data oriented, and only going into grouchy land when someone starts using the word misogynist, sexist, or refusing to believe the data that is clearly right in front of them, whether it is intentional or just due to a lack of understanding of statistics.

Don't think that was actually me. Think you might have seen someone else's comment and thought it was me, I do remember seeing someone else post something about how nothing would get done in a workplace full of women.

Damn, you really, really don't get this concept. Her wages don't go down, they just don't go up as quickly as his because she's not at work as often. Just totally blown away. Find that statistician. Beg on hands and knees for help with the concept of compounding gains and statistical removal of extreneous variables.

Yeah I agree. Men tend to put in a lot of hours at work after a child is born whereas a woman tends to spend less. It makes sense for the man to ask for a promotion because he's about to be there a whole ton. The woman doesn't take a paycut, her wages just don't rise at the same rate and over time that adds up. Even after women return to work they still have a young child taking up their time and resources for the next 18 years minimum. Of course that affects ability to work. That's just a biolo…	/r/MensRights	27/02/20 04:08 AM

Honestly I am still trying to figure out what you think is a joke. Maybe you could quote it to me? Buddy came in calling me all sorts of flavors of sexist for believing the statistic on an article linked on the wiki page about this topic that says that the wage gap disappears after you correct for maternity leave and time spent out of work raising kids/lost opportunities for promotion and next thing I know I'm being told I admitted that I'm a troll.

No, you're making the assumption that it is the woman being punished. Many women view the early years of a pregnancy to be one of the most fulfilling parts of their lives. If I had the option to stay home with my newborn I would, but you know perfectly well the amount of postpartal changes women undergo for months after that period. If I had the option to stay at home and have my partner go to work I would hop on that offer immediately actually. I have Tourettes Syndrome with motor tics primaril…	/r/MensRights	27/02/20 03:28 AM

Alright dude I'm not going to try to explain to you again why the 80% statistic is measuring attitudes about pregnancy and not attitudes about gender/sex. If you really can't understand that, I can't help you. You should talk to a statistician wherever you go to medical school because you're just not understanding. The 80% statistic has not accounted for the amount of variability accounted for by pregnancy. Sex is an inherent trait so judging wage against it is descrimination.

Dude you are literally arguing the wage gap with me right now lmfao. And you are doing it with literally no evidence to back up anything you're saying. Like I said, can't even keep track of your own end of the conversation. All that one has to do to see that you are arguing the wage gap is click on your profile and see your comments.

Yeah you're right, you did not present any data. I care about what the data has to say about the wage gap, not the crap that you are spewing without any evidence. That's because data reflects reality, and your your opinion just reflects the fact that you dont know the data.

Cool if you need to win an argument by making an issue of when someone last got laid as if it affects the topic of discussion in any then I suppose carry on.

The data and the evidence is what matters in science. Here's an article about it, and the blurb associated with it on wiki.

No but how much you like money doesn't determine how much work you do. I like money but that doesn't mean that if I don't show up to work for months that my boss should keep paying me anyway. Statistics show (you can refer to the sources I listed for you) that women who are not pregnant either make more than men (in their 20s) or 2 percent less than them over the course of their lives.

Oh yeah, I should also point out that a lot of this information that I learned about the so called gender gap i learned in nursing school from a female midwife nurse practitioner that has been working neonatal care for 30 years.

Lol you want to tell a nurse how healthcare works you should do your homework first. Healthcare for women cost hundreds of thousands of dollars more for women than for men. For most of the course of American history, women paid higher premiums.

Show me the stats on that from a real source. If you make 1000 dollars in a paycheck and make 2% less you're making 20 dollars less over a week. Meanwhile your employer is paying hundreds extra for your insurance as a woman because the costs of pregnancy care drives up premiums because delivering a baby costs money.

You presume to know anything about my sex life because I recognize that women are often the gatkeeprs of whether a relationship progresses?

You know what, here's the thing about privilege. Everyone has privilege of a different sort. Women have better support groups, live longer, have a much lower suicide rate, and experience a lower rate of depression. Women are essentially able to choose their sexual partner. recognizing that there are ways that you have privilege while failing to recognize that there are ways that women have privilege that is every bit as real as your privilege is asinine.

Yeah that's the fair way to do it. Otherwise when women come back to work if their manager thinks they're a shit employee that manager is going to get sued for using an arbitrary measure to assign a woman pay that may be higher or lower than a man's. Even if it is higher than other men at the office, all it takes is one woman getting pissed that she's making less than one man who may or may not have other qualifications or have negotiated better for himself and it's a lawsuit.

No. A person with 2 years vs 3 years of experience has many, many more hours of training and experience. You don't get to cut the seniority latter because you made a choice in your home life that kept you voluntarily out of work.

When it comes down to it, not all jobs pay the same. People do sports for millions and teach for practically nothing. That's just a fact of life, supply and demand. I'm a nurse, I'm about to go back to grad school to become a nurse practitioner and I'm going to be making in the low mid six figures. In a female dominated career.

I am a nurse. I definitely get a lot of hostility just for being male from other nurses and from patients. Of course, no one gives a fuck though. A man in a "woman's" job is intruding, self entitled and putting himself above women (all things I've heard from female nurses), while no women in a "man's" job is discrimination.

Cool well you just keep on calling people names and misrepresenting statistics but don't be surprised when people talk to you like you sound simple. Comparing pregnant women to single men is not the relevant comparison because there is no similar process in men. The comparison that tells you how work views gender rather than how society views pregnancy is a comparison of two nonpregnant groups of opposite genders.

Of course not. I don't think men should get a raise for choosing to get fucked either. I don't support special treatment of people that have children. Reproduction does not entitle you to anything that someone else without a child is not also entitled to. That is an equal opportunity opinion right there.

I am a male and a female dominated career. I'm a nurse, I am surrounded by women all the time. Many of them make significantly more money than I do, because they have more experience.

Well as it turns out, not all men have the same opinion as all other men. Just like not all women share the same opinion.

We have an answer to that question. It's because for years and years women were not expected to work and when they entered the workforce in larger numbers men were still considered bread winners. Many were happy with that arrangement, and I know this because I work with elderly people and I've asked for opinions. Women took pride in their job as housewife like many still do.

I think it's cute how you found one of the only quotes on that page that doesn't include statistical analysis of what is attributable to that difference.

They aren't women's jobs anymore. Men work those jobs and the pay hadn't moved much.

Because they have a lot less education. Nurse practitioners make 6 figures, that's a traditionally female job.
