Not trying to threadjack but I see this stat all the time and it needs to be corrected more often…

“The gender pay disparity in the U.S. is now 76.5 cents.”

This is just not reality. This myth is based on the fallacy that employers are willing to pay men more money for the same amount of work. Think about it: Why wouldn’t companies hire exclusively women? After all, according to the myth, they are getting paid less for doing the same work. All-women companies would be conquering the world!

You could start with “Why Men Earn More” to disabuse yourself of this illusion perpetuated by feminists. Once you factor out the variables and do apples-to-apples comparisons, you find that women today are doing quite well for themselves.
