    If you're like me, you grew up hearing (over and over again) that women earn 82 cents for every dollar earned by a man. However, it turns out that this is a third-grade statistic coupled with an equally elementary interpretation. When the analysis is appropriately controlled, the pay gap between the sexes shrinks in insignificance. That said, men still continue to earn more than women in both absolute and relative terms. In this episode, I will discuss why this will always be the case.

      I didn't grow up hearing that claim. But I grew up hearing the code that men are valued based on three things: Titles, Women, and Money.
      My father only had a bachelor's degree, so I got a master's degree. My wife is a better woman than my mom because our children are better than me at their age. Among the three, only Money that I haven't beat him. Then I can fulfill his wish that I be a better man than him.
      In my opinion, sure there is sexual pressure that men have to be the earner. But there is also social pressure from its own gender.

    The largest difference in income is in business owners. Male business owners make SIGNIFICANTLY more than their female counterparts. When you ask a female business owner why she started her own business the most common answer you'll receive is to have more time or more control of her time. When you ask a male the same question the response will almost always be to make more money. Different priorities make a significant difference in outcome. Who knew?

    This fits my experience with my wife. I would add that when married no kids we were both very successful. When we had kids, our attitudes towards life changed. She was less concerned about earning money, career and more focused on my son and “being there for him”. I was immediately more interested in my career to provide for her wants “ to stay at home and raise our child”. Along with a desire to provide a stable future for my newly born son. So effectively, with the birth of a child we both got effectively less selfish.

      they don't demand equal representation on these jobs because fe*mini*sm is not about equality, but equity aka redistribution. Money is not the only thing you can redistribute, you can also redistribute things like education, power, etc. There's no power gained working on a crab boat. That's why they are only concerned about jobs that pay well and are positions of power as they would say - law jobs, jobs in the government, IT jobs, etc. Given that men are oppressors and women oppressed, redistribution is from the oppressor to the oppressed, meaning quotas are only for women.

    There was an interesting study of Uber drivers. It was assumed that since people decide for themselves whether or not to work for Uber, and can choose their own hours and which rides to pick up, that gender discrimination in pay would disappear. Oddly enough, female Uber drivers still made about 85% per hour of what male drivers did. Why? They found three main reasons: 1) Men on average drive faster, so they can pick up more rides in the same amount of time. 2) Women worked more part time, meaning the average male driver gained experience faster, which helped them know the best areas for rides, which roads to avoid, etc. 3) Women tend not to work bar areas at night - understandable enough - but that means they miss out on a profitable time period. So, while each decision by female drivers may seem reasonable, together they add up to them earning less per hour.

    When I did a career pivot & was working as a Contractor--I worked 2 FT jobs at the same time because I hadn’t established myself yet.
    Turned out it was a smart move because one company literally didn’t even notify me or the agency I was no longer working there at the same time the other offered me promotion to FTE.
    I told women I was working 2 jobs and not one said they would ever do that. I told men & they thought it was brilliant.
    I got multiple certifications on my own dime, and a female coworker complained about the company paying for her getting hers (it was 2 day course).
    Men work harder for more because we have to. Women don’t share money with us, they will make Scrooge look like Joker 89 Batman movie when he threw away free money.

    Let's remember, something you didn't mention. There are plenty, and I mean plenty of very high paying jobs that women just are not interested in: oil rig, underwater welding, cell tower maintenance, electrical grid work, building and maintaining roads bridges, cables: infrastructure, construction work overwhelmingly, most laborious mass production assembly line work, garbage collector, sewer system maintenance, etc. The credible documentation on this is easily found. As well there are industrious, jobs and sectors that are far dominated by women: healthcare, medicine, general administrative, etc.. The common observation here is that women prefer climate controlled, minimally laborious work that generally do not pay as much as the "male," jobs I mentioned earlier. As far as non-compensated domestic family labor goes, the question becomes, "who's paying the bills to support the food clothing and shelter and insurance and car notes? Non-cash labor the provides other benefits does have a value.

Heck, those very high paying, physically demanding, dirty, dangerous jobs are avoided by many *men* who would otherwise be physically capable of doing them because they choose ways of making a living that may not pay as much, but are far less demanding. Everyone should be thankful there *are* men out there willing to shoulder the burden of maintaining the infrastructure that makes modern life possible.

    This annual study is mis-interpretted. It is NOT about salary. It is TOTAL MONEY EARNED. Even those making the calculation do not blame SALARY discrimination. It is because men work HIGHER PAYING JOBS, and work MORE HOURS. The gap comes (primarily) from an over balance of men in Wall Street, high paying CEO positions, and women leaving the workforce to raise children. Also, that gap has gone from 78% to 82% recently, because the study has found more women coming into the CEO positions.
    This study was never intended to show hiring preferences. It was designed to show one point in a cultural trend. Leave it to the media to take it out of context, and use it to fuel a gender war.

    There's a huge factor that nobody talks about here and that's initial negotiation of salary. I've helped more than one woman in my life negotitate for higher pay. The fact that they even can doesn't even cross their minds most of the time. Men are more competitive and are willing to fire back and say they want a higher amount in a job position negotiation. Women are more prone to just say, "Okay." A huge part of any "wage gap" that exists starts right here.

    A man's identity is so much tied to his career and the value he brings to society, off course he should be motivated to earn more.

Women might soon out earn most men and then they can stop complaining about the wage gap, that would not stop them from demanding a man who earns more than she does.
