Despite how astronomically dysfunctional this debate has become where we're now beginning to enact government intervention in order to prove a fabrication that was debunked decades ago, I'm actually glad this feminist hogwash is getting put to bed once and for all.

Like seriously, how can anyone rational posit this argument any more? Women have a propensity to work less than men. It's not a result of the patriarchy, and it's not a result of some malicious, ethereal discrimination being propagated within the workplace. It's really just down to simple economics. You work more hours, and you get compensated accordingly. You can't have your cake and eat it too, feminists.

Also, some based Milo for you all.

Try not to rage at the horrendously biased mediator.

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
The idea of publishing pay data is retarded anyway. I have no idea where it came from. Surely even feminists don't believe women are being paid less, while in the same position at the same company, relative to a man?

Unfortunately, a lot of my feminist friends actually believe this.

I'm genuinely surprised I haven't turned into a rage-motivated serial killer.

Oh god why?
I use the word "friends" very tenuously.

They're high school acquaintances that got caught up in the whole SNP leftist rabble, if anything.

Of course they believe this. Typical corporate pigs sitting in their high-back leather chairs, twirling their mustaches and cackling as they process new-hire paperwork for a female employee, stamping her payroll sheets with the 'PAY AT 77% MEN'S RATE' stamp (large, bold, red letters; you know what I'm talking about). His assistant (a thin, hunchbacked man with a bad comb-over and pale skin) takes it down to HR, and hands it to the (female) HR reps and slaps the ass of each one on his way out the door, while they all dutifully but somberly get back to work. Every day at 12:00 PM, they play James Brown's 'It's a Man's World' over the intercom to remind all employees of their place.

Anyone have extremely conclusive and compelling arguments I can regurgitate to the local feminists on-hand?

It's pretty much impossible to convince someone that feels like a victim that they aren't one.

Just don't bother.

I've tried enough to know it doesn't fucking work.

That's what I assumed. For example, yesterday I said "there's conclusive evidence against the supposed wage gap" and she said "there's evidence that says vaccinations cause autism."

I just stopped there.

Vaccinations do cause autism though.

Just not in the people receiving the jab funnily enough.

Conclusive and compelling don't mix with feminism.

Like seriously, it's basically arguing with a cultist at this point. Nothing you can do will change their minds.

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
It's a shame whenever I get into a feminist argument I'm too drunk to link to this stuff here.

Then again that could be a good thing depending how you see it.

Doesn't matter how drunk you are or how good your argument is, when it's with a feminist they shout you out completely. Last time I "debated" with a feminist "friend" on facebook they deleted all my posts, their status, and removed me as a friend.

Try living with one. Great banter between her and the Bulgarian who had his own relatively moderate views on things.

It's a fact in the sense that women gravitate towards different lifestyle choices that compensate significantly less than what men choose to do.

It's not a fact because of discrimination or muh soggy knee.

women and men who literally do the same exact jobs get paid substantially differently

there's virtually no difference that i can see between a social liberal and a social libertarian, but i choose to identify with the former, because libertarians are scummy slack-jawed morons in basically every other aspect

and there's no reason why i'd want to associate with them

Quote
As Libertarians, we seek a world of liberty; a world in which all individuals are sovereign over their own lives and no one is forced to sacrifice his or her values for the benefit of others.
translation:
"we are a bunch of selfish cunts, and we are PROUD of it"

i mean, it's nice that they just come out and admit that they're EVIL right in the first paragraph of their preamble, but
...that means they're still evil

it's good to be for individual rights and all that, but to treat them as such a priority, to me, is just disgusting
