When asked to rate 13 different aspects of their job and work environment, women employed full time in the U.S. differed most from their male counterparts in reaction to their pay. Just 28 percent of full-time working women are completely satisfied with their pay, compared with 34 percent of men.

So, men are just more easily satisfied. Anything new?

28 vs 34 is not statistically significant for gender differences. However, the study does confirm what most already know. Most workers don't like their jobs. duha?
Get a life with something besides your job.

Completely satisfied??? There is an aspect of human nature that is greed and laziness (a couple of the deadly sins). If they were to pay me 10 times what I make now AND I never had to show up for work or be accountable for any work that was done ... heck, after a few months, I'd want a raise.

Sorta like welfare but with more cash.

I never believe statistics that aren't backed up with actual data. Doesn't anyone else find it suspicious that there are thousands of these "news stories" about the pay gap with executive summaries of the statistics, but never the raw data or even a link to a paper published by the actual researchers.

How do we know the raw data is correct or a simple random sample? How was it collected? How do we know if the statistics are correct?

It would be trivially easy to publish the raw data as an archive of CSV files somewhere where the whole world could download it. Not only would that provide evidence for these so-far baseless assertions, but it would also allow the world to understand why the pay gap exists, if it does, and how to fix it. It would also identify the specific corporations that are discriminating, allowing women to actually be able to support wage discrimination cases with real evidence.

So why hasn't anyone publish the actual data? Until they do, I and any rational person have no choice but to call bullshit.

True enough.

Also there's the lower pay of everyone compared to fantasy-football-loving douchebags who do nothing but suck up to management all day.

One problem with women's pay comes from their very nature. They tend to be people pleasers, tend to be less confrontational by far, and have a hard time asking for what they deserve. A man is far more likely to struggle for a bigger paycheck, working up through the ranks, and switching jobs to find something that pays more. While a woman will usual be more interested in her working environment, office social activities, and the approval of her bosses. She won't usually jeopardize whatever harmony exists by demanding a raise, while men will.
So, all things being equal, men will still get paid more BECAUSE THEY ASK.

I left more jobs in the seconds following the "Yearly Review" than any other reason.

The Boss:"Well we only give 3% raises"
Me: "I can't tell the Power company and the Grocery store that."

I quit my way UP.

Even though women at my workplace outnumber men 3:1, and even though I'm in an auditing/projects position and not a line person like most of the employees, guess who has to lift all the heavy stuff?

10   NDrLoR   2014 Oct 17, 2:03am  

A woman being irked? Who would ever have imagined!

Pussy-whipped men need to STOP paying to wine and dine western women.

STOP!

Don't pay for them. In fact, don't even date them, look at them, engage them, flirt or bother with them.

This is why I'd stopped dating, 3 years ago. My money is my money. I'm not letting in someone, so that they can have a nice payday in the future, off my work.

It's Canadian (and Australian) hoes from here forth.

When I was young...

I worked at CVS and 7-eleven.

Being bossed around and barked at orders by women supervisors to do all the heavy lifting.

The women employees with my same position mostly were given cashier positions most of the time.

Guess, who made more money?

The fact is that true gender discrimination still exists in the work place.

Women are discriminated and judged POSITIVELY just because of having a vagina.

Men on the other hand are discriminated and judged NEGATIVELY just because of having a penis.

After that, I never worked retail again in my life. Moved on to cushy corporate office jobs where I'm rarely asked to do some lifting.

Women are good at shopping and crying, and that's about it.

The final word on this issue.

Um dude, you are still paying for it.

Unless you are gay or a complete freeloading scumbag willing to bang husky chicks with low self esteem, you are always gonna pay one way or another.

The point is that these Quebecois esc*rts are 7s to 10s and you don't have to deal with their issues, afterwards. In contrast, dating one is a drama queen nightmare.

Just get a rubber pussy, make homemade lube and search free porn.

No stds, no "baby momma drama", no lawsuits, no child support and no money spent except $60 for a decent rubber pussy, $10 dollars for homemade lube, $200 the most for a computer and just a free wifi-network you can freeload on.

Both together. Pun intended.

Women are a commodity. In fact, women themselves by their actions prove they are a commodity when they say they only date rich or well-off men.

There are also those, who date middle class men, whom they can dominate and control completely. So in both situations, the gold diggers vs the control freaks, you get dysfunctional behavior.

We're in the 21st century, it starts with a RealDoll and then in another 20 years, an animatronic android.

This is good foreplay for stalking chicks at the mall.

24   dublin hillz   2014 Oct 17, 2:29am  

The issue is that women have been raised by completely different sets of parents than men and come from a different society as well so the defects of one gender cannot exist in the other...

Women love being commodities. They just don't like being cheap commodities or ignored commodities. They want to be the most expensive, adored commodities.

They want to be the commodities that wind up with all the other commodities.

You can also stay with the real STDS, real lawsuits, real divorces, real child support, real alimony, real drama, real aging, real saggy skin, real obesity, real nagging, real gold digging, real trumped up domestic violence arrest, real high blood pressure and real heart attack.

$5,000 - $10,000 is a small price for a real doll considering how realistic they.

Don't know how long they last so you maybe better off with escorts, brothels and whores.

But STDs are guaranteed.

Lawyers will find ways to turn RealDolls into special case Corporations, and they will get half your stuff, anyway (or a fourth or fifth, anyway, with lawyers getting everything else).

Ok, but over the course of let's say a decade, it's less than $2 per day.

Once they turn those dolls into robots with artificial intelligence, feminazi cunts will demand that they be recognized as an artificial synthetic female human with the same entitlements as natural organic cunts.

"They are robots but having feelings..."

Anything into anything.

That's their job.

They are mostly parasites with only a few good ones out there who are eventually slaughtered and end up hating the profession in the end.

Doctors are also parasites as well and in fact greater parasites than lawyers. Profiting off of sick and ill people while masquerading as a healer is the lowest of low.

If you can buy a woman for less than $5k, you just impressed the rest of us. Do you take maintenance into account? Supplies? Equipment? Ancillary items? The $5k - does that include dealing with your extended family members, or do you have to negotiate a price for that?

Does that $5k take into account the mental/emotional toll of having to deal with a whole person who is emotion-based, able to multi-task and keep a household running smoothly?

I realize that the trolls are bitter - they obviously have experienced some issues with women and now their wishes are to find a woman who is willing to sit down and shut up except when they're serving them grog and rubbing their feet. They don't want women who are partners, they want servants.

And we're glad that you don't want us - we want something more than a life support system for an asshole. That's why we divorce ya'll.

When you're sick, might I suggest going to your lawyer's office?

Seems like Ted Bundy died too young, before his visionary views could become mainstream.
