Thus we need, for example, about 1.2 female doctors to replace one male doctor (assuming that the pay gap is an indicator of the productivity gap, which it is as far as I know).

I think the figure is quite a bit higher than 1.2, because the oft-quoted "80 cents on the dollar" pay gap number only compares men & women working (nominally) full time. Yes, even then men work about 4 hours per week more on average, but that figure completely leaves out all the women who've had kids and gone back to work part time.

A good place to look for an example is veterinary science, which has swung from mostly men to 90% women - and now we're having serious vet shortages in some places, especially large animal vets for farms. In New Zealand, the retiring head of the vet science faculty at one of the major universities last year made a comment that because vet science is now 90% women and because so many women leave to have kids, "We need to train 3 times as many vets now".

After he said that he was howled down by feminists and the usual outrage brigade, so he disappeared quietly and didn't comment again. So I don't know if that figure is anywhere near accurate, or if it was just an offhand comment that he threw out without much thought.

But it seems pretty likely that we're looking at a much higher number than 1.2.

If you look at the actual statistics, economic growth has been relatively stable since the end of the 70s. The problem is that wages haven't kept pace with the increase in productivity during the same period. Every time new technology promises to increase the wealth and leisure time of workers, it instead gets used to increase profit margins. There's plenty of growth, it's just all going into the pockets of the rich.

Economic growth is slow because of neoliberal economic policy.

Its gone back to the boom bust capitalism of the 1800s.

In the UK we have to train 2 female doctors to do the work of 1 male doctor over the space of a career. The reason is that female doctors work shorter hours and a higher proportion of them retire early.

Marriage is declining because couple split up readily these days even b4 getting married. At a dinner party the other night, with 2 Gay guys and 6 str8 females all on their 40's and 50's only one had been married and had a child. Nobody else had.
Females lead in the acquiring of university degrees. But as 43% of those females never return to their chosen careers after having children, those degrees nd tax dollars have been wasted. It matters little if females graduate on ma's as males will always doninate because it is they who accumulate relevant work experience.
If males would stop listening to females and trans, they would not feel marginalised at all.

I think point 1 is wrong, because people always work no matter what and they could be driven just to work for themselves. However, point 2 and 3 do have validity, as having a greater percentage of the workforce that is working less hours would strain the economy, and we are seeing increased drug and suicide rats especially in areas where the conservative family lifestyle was most popular
