Women Are Paid Less Than Men Not Because of Discrimination

Depends on the kind of women and the kind of jobs. The 76% wage gap or whatever is completely raw and wrong, and should stop being cited by feminists, I agree. That much is obvious.
But when you adjust for as many factors as we can, there is still about an 8% gap for women as an aggregate. The US gov's Dept. of Labor found this in a study by a bunch of private consulting firms a few years ago. Furthermore, that average looks much worse when you break it down by things like race. Black women are still very much affected by the wage gap when you compare them to white men with the same jobs titles, backgrounds, and hours. White women less so.

I don't doubt this at all.

I've been said this, it's the biggest myth other than trickle down economics.
My thing is when you show feminists that it's about choices they like to use this argument
"Well women are socially pressured to go into certain careers(teaching secretary social work etc)"
I agree to an extent because I've SEEN it with women in my family. But if you're gonna say that you also have to admit the flipside that men are pressured to go Into certain careers(high paying more dangerous) as well. I remember a homeboy of mine wanted to be a teacher and his father flat out told him you can't do that because you can't raise a family on that salary. He would never tell his daughter that.

Per hour teachers get paid pretty well.
They work about 180 days and get paid for 365.
His dad sounded pretty ignorant
What did dude end up majoring in?
He ended up getting out of school and being a cop in NJ. He makes like 95,000 a year with tons of overtime
Which is more the every teacher I know

"We are the Fury"
Black males are disadvantaged as well in terms of pay equity, in some ways worse than black women. This is often overlooked.

Worse? You think so?
I'd think sista's have it harder than any other demographic...
Still, point out how she is wrong, or ask for evidence, dont resort to personal attacksShe's a random spouting statistics on youtube with no references/sources...
... and i dont think we need evidence that men(in general) take more dangerous jobs, or that women take time off to have children.
