Please tell us. CEOs explain why single women in the US own more homes than single men — even though they “still earn less.”

Women still earn 18% less than men...

Again with this crap?

duhhhh · 2023-11-17T13:45:28+00:00

Odd how they don't mention all the women who do earn equally or more than men until they land a provider who then has the "privilege" of working/commuting more hours to more stressful jobs to support others.

3 CEOs explain why single women in the US own more homes than single men — even though they still earn less

seems like this article had a golden opportunity to ask those female CEO's why they pay women less than men.

These are CEO's of companies that have fully bought in to "women are paid less", and instead of asking them why they do that...they lobbed softball "girl power" questions to them.

The major demographic of the homeless are men.

Many of them once had homes. And wives. And families.

Guess who got the assets?

Embarrassed_Curve769 · 2023-11-17T14:04:17+00:00

Women do not make less money than men. Not in the only stat that matters: same compensation for same work. I know it's horseshit, you know it's horseshit, people who make these ridiculous claims know it's horseshit. It doesn't matter. The lies never stop.

peteypete78 · 2023-11-17T14:53:29+00:00

As usual the headlines are done to make it seem like women are doing better by themselves.

this is buried at the bottom of the analysys link

"That said, homeownership isn’t just a young person’s game, and factors outside of earnings could contribute to them becoming homeowners. Considering that women are twice as likely to report being widowed last year than men, according to the latest U.S. Census Bureau, it’s possible — if not likely — that many women who now report being single homeowners bought that home with the spouse they outlived."

so sounds like its just women inherit a home more than men.

Divorce and their getting the home while the male needs to pay child support?

Divorce and their getting the home while the male needs to pay child support?

63daddy · 2023-11-17T14:34:53+00:00

What the article fails to mention is overall earnings and die dung power are not one and the same. Women overall earn less but spend more than men. I’m other words they are subsidized by men.

Women are more likely to get the house in the divorce. It’s typically men who have to leave the home when there’s domestic violence. Wives tend to outlive their husbands and live in a home after he’s gone.

It’s funny how the article fails to acknowledge all these obvious reasons.

TheCloudFestival · 2023-11-17T15:31:08+00:00

Easy. Because women shack up with a guy who owns a home and then for some fucking bizarre reason the courts allow her to kick him out of his own house.

Stepan_icarus · 2023-11-17T15:03:39+00:00

Houses are a shitload of work and all of it is your problem. In an apt complex, the owner is responsible for plumbing, electric, heat, etc, and you just have to pay to maintain. Caring for land is also a lot of work, and most men aren't interested in a house and land unless they desire the land as a means to end, like farming or gardening.

They get them in the divorce.

Because alimony and child support are not taxable and don't count a "income"

Fuzzy_Department2799 · 2023-11-17T14:24:48+00:00

So for 2022 US labor participation was 65.5% for men. And 56.8 percent for women. 56.8 is 86.71% of 65.5. We have a nobel prize winner who proved the pay gap is a direct result of women's choices. So women who work at a labor participation rate that is 13% less than men supposedly earn 18% less than men. While also working fewer hours than men. So there is no actual gap. Got it.

I can find no significant research as to why men prefer to live in apartments and why women seem so desperate to buy a house. From my personal perspective I cant remember a single man who bought a house before getting married unless he had cattle or horses or was a farmer who needed land. So maybe women see it as some sort of status symbol? After enjoying the expense and responsibility of being a home owner just last night my STBEW told me she would never buy a house again and would always live in an apartments. Houses are just to much work.

The "author" of this article is a far left anti capitalist they/them trans comedian so im sure there is no anti male bias in their work.

Ziogatto · 2023-11-17T20:41:29+00:00

If we start calculating divorce settlements as income you will find that women suddenly outearn men by a large marging. Wage gap solved.

ThePiachu · 2023-11-17T23:40:17+00:00

Is it due to women living longer so a lot more of them widow their spouses and thus keep their homes as "single women"?

antifeminist3 · 2023-11-18T01:12:26+00:00

In Canada and possibly other countries, child support to the mother is counted as a man's income.

aries0413 · 2023-11-17T15:40:30+00:00

Their income is compensated by men through taxation or child support.

AbysmalDescent · 2023-11-18T03:05:44+00:00

There's a lot of factors that play into this. For starters, women tend to not only have fewer/lower expenses but also end up being supported in various ways by other men. Women also do not have to project any kind of status, which means they not only save a great deal of money in dating, with men being expected to pay for women, but also having to spend less on other goods that men have to purchase(even when they can't afford it) in order to attract women(this includes homes, vehicles, vacations, etc).

Women will also find a lot easier time finding cohabitation and being supported by their parents/family for much longer, not just because they have that preferential treatment and sympathy but because they aren't judged for living at home the way men are. This allows them to save money far easier for down payments. Men will also often face discrimination when it comes to renting, and have fewer options available to them because they are men. Women can also find men to grant them free shelter, and move in with men far easier, and can also gain shelters/subsidies from social/government help far more often than men.

There's also a very real possibility that the way people calculate wages here is comparing the income of all men against the income of all women, which is likely including billionaires and millionaires which skews the numbers for men but also likely does not include things like alimony, child support and other assets gained through divorce, such as family homes.

Women are also often far more represented in fields that deal with cash/tip, such as with bartending and hosting. These tend to get to not be taxed as much, which further enables women to get away with more. Women also pay less for many other services, such as car insurance, and can even get away with not driving a car entirely since they won't be judged for not having a car the way men would.

plainoldusernamehere · 2023-11-17T15:48:01+00:00

One word: debt. Aaron Clarey, an economist by training, and contributor in the manosphere has covered this. Women take on more debt, and hold on to it far longer than men.

ABeeBox · 2023-11-17T15:32:24+00:00

You know what, maybe if more women worked in jobs where the high risk of at-work fatality and injury is compensated by high pay (such as oil rig workers), maybe women would be paid more.

There is no gender pay gap. Its just that men take more riskier (and therefore better paying) jobs, work more overtime, and are more likely to ask for a raise or a promotion.

a certain type of woman with class privilege,"

I'm surprised they'd even go that far, suggesting any woman on the planet has 'privilege' most ordinary men never had. I sure wasn't born into anything

papo4ever · 2023-11-19T01:41:24+00:00

1) Divorce

2) Single women always get the family house, men have to buy their own or rent

3) Women only spend on real state and vacations, almost never in cars, hobbies, or men.

PornIndustryPat · 2023-11-17T20:51:43+00:00

If you factor in onlyfans and prostitution, I highly doubt men earn more than women

mr_ogyny · 2023-11-17T20:45:41+00:00

Besides getting the house in a divorce, it must be so much easier when you can find a provider and save all your money for yourself.

wwwhistler · 2023-11-17T21:14:46+00:00

when a single woman want's to buy a home...there are many programs to assist in getting a loan.

if you're a single man wanting to buy a home....you're pretty much on your own.

and that alone may account for the disparity (which is less than 5%.)

TheDwiin · 2023-11-18T05:09:02+00:00

They earned 82% of what men did? Is that total or based off of median salary? Does it account for hours worked?

somebullshitorother · 2023-11-18T08:19:23+00:00

I wonder if this data still holds after ruling out privileges like alimony and free food.

wildlandsroamer · 2023-11-18T12:54:00+00:00

Truth is it’s because they almost always get the house in the settlement.

Bimbo marries sucker #1 gets a house and $30k; marries sucker #2 and repeat…after 2-3 cycles in a relatively short period of time they can amass (fleece) quite a bit of wealth.

randonumero · 2023-11-18T14:57:13+00:00

Let's be honest about a few things...Historically most men were woefully average or below. At many points during US history you could be an average guy and have a pretty good life. You could find a wife, get a house, have a car or two...As things have gotten more expensive, it's harder to make it when you're at or below average. Women in some demographics also tend to be better educated than their male peers and we've seen an increase in pay for some fields that are female dominated (especially in healthcare including mental health).

This is going to sound shovanistic but many young single men spend their money trying to date and impress women. Women who are working are often able to save their money and live life where as the equivalent men are often spending money on them. While I don't like many relationship subreddits, a common theme is still that often the guy pays for more.

liferelationshi · 2023-11-18T17:51:29+00:00

Single women in the US own more homes than single men because these single women expect/demand a man pay for the dates. Dating expenses add up.

Buckowski66 · 2023-11-17T16:15:49+00:00

Employers also know age 29-35, there’s going to be multiple maternity leaves , strong possibility some women never return to work, they’ll have to re-hire and re-train and if they do return the job work will now be of secondary importance if the woman has a husband also working. Hidden costs and losses often not discussed.

Dashing2025 · 2023-11-17T16:09:02+00:00

I suspect it's because women buy smaller houses with less bedrooms than men.

oggyb · 2023-11-17T21:54:56+00:00

Finally, the statistics about single women and homeownership "only apply to a certain type of woman with class privilege," she says. "There are others — like those living in immigrant families, or multiple families living under a household — who are not included, who may require more government assistance to reach the same milestones."

As far as I can tell, this is the only bit of insight in the article.
