I have a difficult time believing that the Bureau of Labor Statistics says that "men are more motivated" workers than women. Let's see some proof of that, Rep. Infantine.
The disparity in pay is a myth, even feminists agree! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/christina-hoff-sommers/wage-gap_b_2073804.html
From an economics POV, if there was a worker willing to do the same amount of work for lower pay, then they'd be hired. So we'd see women being hired, not men! This is the same reasoning why conservatives complain about immigrants "taking their jobs," same job, lower pay.
Of course, what that Rep. said was vile, ignorant, and just plain stupid. *sigh* It's just sad when you see that kind of thing.
Oh, Roboboy. It's sad to see you behave so predictably. Christina Hoff Sommers is the "feminist" adored by men who hate feminists....like libertarians.
The disparity in pay is not a myth. It's called a myth by the same people who deny climate change. Threatened white boys/men and their few female allies.
As for the representative - he's a member of the GOP, the same party the FSP is allied with. The party of ignorant, vile, and stupid is the one your cult hitched their wagon to. Yeeha!
A business that did the intelligent thing and hired workers that could do the exact same work for less pay would cut costs and would have a market advantage against competitors .... Unless you seriously think the entire US economy is sexist.
The whole fucking world is sexist, Roboboy, not just the economy. If you hadn't started wanking to Ayn Rand as a lad, you might be a slightly more reliable observer.
Stop giving me Hoff Sommers as a source. Stop giving me libertarian sources. I don't accept either as credible.
Do you have an actual job, Roboboy? In a real workplace, the kind where you punch a timeclock? Have you ever had a job in an actual workplace that included male and female workers?
You're right. It is all about choices. Centuries ago, men decided that women were inferior critters, and they've been discriminating against us ever since.
One of the all time dumb comments.
