So all footballers should earn the same,after all they are all playing the same game..

And why do strikers earn/cost more than goalkeepers.

And will the Bladies be paid the same as their male counterparts.

Off to bed before my brain implodes - further. :confused:
 
If Billy Sharp sexually identified as an attack helicopter, would he still be counted in the male figures?

You know that these figures are totally misleading and used to push a political and ideological agenda?

They do not show men and women doing the exact same jobs getting paid differently, they show men and women getting paid differently because men and women do different jobs at the same company. Men will be getting paid more on average at Sheffield United because men on average do jobs that pay more than the jobs women do, not because they are doing the exact same work and getting paid less than men for it.

That’s correct. The most senior male job down there is Chairman. The most Senior female job is Senior rollover hot-dog boiler. There’s a big difference in pay, not because of gender, but because if you ruin a rollover hot dog it’s serious stuff, whereas if you make loads of blunders as Chairman it doesn’t really matter.

Err no...

Is it the other way round?:rolleyes:

I don't know if I have the strength or the inclination to go through the gender pay gap debate on a football forum.

It's illegal to pay men and women differently for the same work, but anyone who's been in employment knows that almost no two people do the "same work". Different roles, different responsibilities, different hours at different times, different job titles, all make it really easy to obscure things to such a degree that exactly what's going on is almost impossible to analyse at a macro level beyond generalities. What we do know though, is that women are earning less than men and occupying less of the senior roles.

Now, you can spin that in any Peterson, right wing economics, styling of "it's all voluntary choices" that you like, but you're still facing a reality in which over all women earn, on average, less than men. At which point we can either accept that there are lingering cultural norms that lead to that, or go down the avenue of the weird and wonderful Peterson types with their "big five" personality traits and Jungian inferences about the innate psychology of the genders. I don't think this is a great venue for my anti-Peterson rants either.

Thanks for this. I would have said pretty much the same thing, but also added how much of a pseudo-intellectual, smug reactionary shit bag Jordan Peterson is.

Somewhere the sound of a million feminists exploding can be heard.

But, what if I told you that you can believe in equality without tolerating this third-wave bullshit?

Yeah, I've seen this pillock as well. I wonder if blokes like this ever let their wives finish sentences or choose the channel on the telly.

Threesome.
 



I asked my good lady about this, and what she thought. "Whatever you think sweetheart" she said.

Which is why he bravely pours forth the beauty behind every right wing American talking point going.
 
"The gender pay gap is a myth" is always a bait and switch.

We always go from "it's a myth" to "here are all the reasons I believe it's okay for such a gap to exist".

Why the harbingers of truth, like Shapiro and Peterson, strict empiricists that they no doubt are, feel the need to go through this, I'm not entirely sure. Why we have to go through the tedium of arguments like "It's illegal so it therefore doesn't happen" is yet another mystery.

The biggest mystery of all is still why I let myself get sucked in to this stuff.
