Woah. now who's being frightfully obtuse... society values motherhood less (via economic means) than other life "choices". Do you believe it is a coincidence that the system that assigned/assigns these values was built by male leaders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) I don't even understand how there exists an intellectually honest disagreement in 2021 to some of these simple facts some of you appear to be debating. Mind = blown Our system pays women and minorities a fraction of what it pays white males. Our entire history has been lead by white males and the conclusion is that "women/minorities chose these lower paying roles" face. palm.

You can not be certain which expressed preferences are done so due to societal pressures. Do you deny that physiologic and body chemistry differences could be a factor in expressed preferences? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who thinks rationally and is intellectually honest (or anyone who can Google and read and is similarly intellectually honest) will arrive at the same conclusion. Nothing I've said is controversial. It's literally acknowledging facts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you deny that physiologic and body chemistry differences could be a factor in expressed preferences? This is all irrelevant. Again, all I've done is simply identify that the system (designed by 250 years of leaders from one demographic) has resulted in significant economic advantages for that demographic. I've never debated WHY that is the case, I'm simply pointing out that it IS the case. Men and women are different. Duh. They have different preferences. Duh. One set of preferences is rewarded more economically. The set belonging to the group in charge of the system design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have presented no facts to back that conclusion. And when I say job to job numbers are only 2¢ different, you wave it away as if it doesn’t matter.

One last time: The system we live in economically rewards the demographic it was designed by. If you don't disagree with that you literally don't disagree with anything I've said the last three pages. If you do disagree with that, you live in another reality.
