Any "gap" is completely a voluntary choice as majority of women choose lower paying jobs. Idk maybe something about long and hard manual labor that cripples the spine or consumes all your personal time is unattractive to them.

I don't love the approach of looking for evidence that fits an existing belief. So instead, let's ask for evidence proving a discriminatory wage gap, and see if there is sufficient evidence. This makes more sense anyway, as the burden of proof would be on feminists for this matter. I'll paste from a previous post I made which examined 9 sources commonly cited by feminists:

The study from the AAUW, "Graduating to a Pay Gap." It claims to compare men and women one year after college graduation (finds that women earn 82%), and that even when they control for occupation, hours worked, etc. they still find a wage gap of 7 percentage points. Two problems with this, they bury the 7% figure in the body of the paper while putting the 82% figure in the summary, so people ted to cite that (including politicians). The second problem is that they didn't control for occupation correctly. That would require a great deal of work as there are thousands of occupations they would need to categorize, but instead they used 12 broad occupational categories. One of these was "other white collar jobs." Another was just "Other." You can't compare librarians to attorneys and say that you compared "apples to apples." Shoddy research.

The rest of the post can be found on my profile (it's the newest one). I'd link t but apparently we can't link to reddit pages on this subreddit.

They used to have a web page debunking it even on the gov web sites. Guess the feminists had that taken down.

But these days does anyone seriously pretend the wage gap is real when you pin them down to "equal pay for equal work"? They just hope you THINK that's what they are saying.

I mean when’s the last time you saw a construction crew on the side of the road comprised of even one woman? Go ahead, I’ll wait.

Yehp I have the equation here for you, the harder you work/think and the more of a service you provide in today's age equates to how much you can earn, and when you earn enough... Say billions... You can pay your legality off and stop paying taxes, hence making rich people richer! Yeay, fair game for everyone right?
