1	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap I'm not sure what you mean by that. Different degrees have different earning potentials, so we would have to look at it on a case-by-case basis. To simply answer your question, no, I don't think "total degrees earned" by gender has much predictive value. I'm not asking about predictive value, you dolt. I'm asking about whether you think the gap is a problem. Lots of dudes on reddit seem to think it is. Again, I'm not sure what you are implying, but this likely reduces male incomes overall becaus…	/r/PussyPassDenied	16/04/17 07:21 PM
1	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap All those studies account for is level of education, years of experience, and career choice uh... they absolutely do, lol.	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 03:08 PM
2	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap Do you think the fact that women earn more college degrees than men matters? Do you think it matters that men commit far more crimes than women? Those are raw stats that point to different questions and problems. Like, is there something about our system that favors women over men in the college route. Same is true for the raw wage gap of 23%. What is it about women dominated careers that cause them to be lower compensated? Why is it that women don't get jobs in other fields. Why is it that wome…	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 03:08 PM
1	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap No actually, it accounts for all of that. If there was, companies should only hire women, or would only make good business sense. No. They wouldn't. Because employers think they're paying everyone fairly. We just subconsciously judge women to be less competent employees and thus deserving less money. Also it's illegal to discriminate pay like that so if you actually knew you were paying women less than a man for the same work, because they were a woman, you'd be doing something illegal. Smart bu…	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 01:33 PM
7	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap The 23% isn't a "myth" it just measures something else. It exists. It's a real number. I see dudes bitching all the time on reddit how women get more college degrees than men but no one cares about men. Well we're not controlling for anything there. Maybe the raw numbers say something important too. Like why aren't men getting as many college degrees? Similarly, why aren't women going into the higher paying fields? Why aren't women dominated fields better compensated? Those are questions the 23%…	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 01:32 PM
1	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap What I'm saying is that the CEO of the company wouldn't necessarily have that bias, and could unilaterally mandate women be given preferred hiring to save that money. It doesn't require anything other than a mandate from a single individual. Except no, because again, managers and whatnot are still paying people what they think they deserve, they just think women aren't as competent or productive. Is there a 4th option that could explain why no single corporate leader has ever decided to favor hi…	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 01:29 PM
2	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap then all companies would hire women only and save a shit ton of money. No... That would only be the case in employers Knew they were actually paying women less Though women were doing the same job Turns out a lot of this problem is that employers just don't value women the same as men. They don't think "I could hire a woman and pay her less for the same work!" They think "I could hire a woman and pay her the same rate as a man, but get less work out of her." Go to the wiki page on the gender pay…	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 06:13 AM
13	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap But we can also look at other averages and see men's work is more dangerous, men typically work longer hours, don't always get/much paternal leave, men typically work in higher paid jobs etc. And when you control for that there's still a 5-8% gap.	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 06:06 AM
10	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap You had to realize that was the inevitable result of a subreddit focused on women. This is reddit. Most people here are 15-25 aged white dudes. They think the greatest forms of discrimination out there are against straight, white dudes. Oh won't those damned SJWs just think of how hard straight white dudes have it	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 06:05 AM
1	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap It's 5-8%. If any dude wants to write off as nothing, I'm more than willing to take just the lower bound there of 5% of their paycheck for the rest of their working lives. It's nothing. Wouldn't miss it. Who cares?	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 06:03 AM
1	Another Perspective on the Wage Gap Ah yes. One thing we know from history is that as soon as a law is passed stating something, it is 100% in force and no societal backlash occurs and there's definitely no more discrimination.	/r/PussyPassDenied	13/04/17 06:02 AM
