Been a bad year for that Science......

 

Got that right.

For probably the first and last time in the political forum I agree with Friction. Anyone that doesn't acknowledge that women don't recieve equal pay for equal work is simply denying reality. It's not legal. You're correct on that. But it still happens.

 

Thank you for acknowledging that. Just because it's illegal doesn't mean women always receive equal pay for equal work. They usually don't. You are correct. Thinking otherwise is denying reality.

Than prove me wrong Science, I promise i'm not a close minded guy. Why am I denying reality? Actually show me something that counter's my point. Types of jobs, hours/overtime, positions and locations are variables that easily explain the disparity in paychecks, not just with gender, but with races as well. Show me something, an article, a debate online. I'm not one of those guys that won't listen because you posted from a certain news source (Infowars is the exception). It's one thing to tell me I'm wrong, but to not even back up your claim and just say HOGWASH isn't gonna cut it for me.

Not true

 

Women teachers get same pay

 

Nurses

 

Fast food workers all get min wage

 

Waitresses and waiters get the same

 

In some cases I say women get paid more than men in certain jobs.

 

NBA

Wnba

No, no where close but there is a reason.

That speech made me uncomfortable and embarrassed. The language and subjects were vulgar.

 

Are you wanting us to think that you don't toss a couple of Ashley's words papaw's way when he gets that certain amorous look in his eyes?

Everyone is saying this is Ashley Judd rant, but those words were written by someone else. She only delivered them.

Denying that women get screwed when it comes to equal pay is as dumb as some of yours and my opponents denying man-made global warming.

What about the US women's soccer team?

 

In the end, many posts in this thread illustrate why women need to continue to bring attention to women's issues. There will be men and women who disagree, but I 100% stand with the women who are protesting.

That is correct. And while uncomfortable for some BGP'ers apparently, there was a lot of truth in those words.

You keep saying it but provide nothing to support your argument.

Give me some stats on how much more viewership, money, sponsors as compared to mens soccer.

 

I don't ever or will ever count men and women sports as an equal job. It's based on viewership and sponsorship, Not talent or experience like a real 9-5 job.

I can't stand when someone stands on stage, yells, makes purposefully offensive comments, uses foul language, and suggests violence against other people.

Just google it. I think they sued for equal pay as the men's team in 2016. The information is out there for the masses to see and hear. It was a big discussion in sports for a while.
