You should care about these lies being passed around as truth. It affects every man including me and you more than you think.

I don't know about you, but I'm tired of seeing men attacked on television and the internet. (men are stupid/women are smart, men are violent, rapists, wage gap, male privilege etc.)

Rub limes under your arms like a real man. :cool:
 
Didn't watch. Hope it ends in a Chinese woman getting a job
 
Usually, if you can't come up with a compelling argument as to why you deserve a raise, you probably don't deserve a raise.

The aversion to disclosing your own wage has got to be the dumbest thing that was ever ingrained into the American worker culture. Want to prevent "wage gap"? Talk openly and honestly about your wage.

Everyone checks "glassdoor" when applying for a job

I think it's okay to disclose personal details (including wage) to someone who is trustworthy, like a close personal friend who might work alongside you. There's A LOT of backstabbers in the workforce (more common than not, imo), and if I can't trust you with my life, I'm not going to disclose things that can be used against me in any way. Made that mistake several times and it bit me so bad each time I literally can't force myself to do it even just once more.

In your scenario, where all the workers care about each other more than themselves and hold hands while singing campfire songs, I believe it could work to be open rather than judicious with everything including personal work details, regardless.

I want to pitch a reality show to TLC ( Is that still a channel?) An all male construction crew vs an all female construction crew. Just to see who's more productive, does better work, works harder, earns their pay. (I already know the answer)

Screw construction work. You could do that with literally any profession.
 
Freakonomics did an excellent podcast on the wage gap if you're interested. If not, I'll give you the cliffs:

Women on average make less because:

- part of it can be blamed on the fact that they take months off work to have babies, and miss out on any advancement opportunities that arise during that time.
- the bigger part is that women don't value money as highly as men. To a man, money is everything. Women in general value flexibility to be equal to or sometimes more valuable than money. This means that a woman could be on a fast-track to becoming a CEO, but then decides that she's missing out on her kid's childhood, so she takes a less-demanding job for a small company making a fraction of what she used to make, simply because they allow her to work around her family's schedule.
- even women who don't have kids fall into this, because they are generally the ones who take care of old or sick parents, much moreso than men.

Anybody that wants to know this, does know it. Other people choose to believe a wage gap exists for reasons that are completely false.
