Why doesn't anyone ever investigate the life expectancy gap between the genders?

Those choices in wage gap lead directly to a life expectancy gap.

But women make those choices because of internalized misogyny /s

Gender wage gap has been debunked so many times, you have to be extremely hypocritical to pretend there is still sexism in the workplace.

a similar study came out on PhDs. women made less because they chose PhDs in humanities

The work choice being: women have a choice and men don't.

Thomas Sowell destroyed the wage gap myth 50 years ago, in 1971: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlwZCuJcbKA

Let's apply the same logic here that we apply to boys having worse grades in school: If boys get worse grades, they obviously do so because they choose to bunk off school and not study enough. Therefore, boys getting worse grades than girls isn't a problem.

But of course the problem isn't as simple as that. The wage gap exists, it just doesn't exist in the form (most)feminists claim it does. Something still needs to be done about it, personally I'm for making wages in all fields higher, because everything works 9-5 deserves a decent wage.
