Why would you not just quote the post instead of typing it again?

just to clarify: i wasn't suggesting the wage gap is a myth, just that women aren't responsible for it. Joe and i have gone like six weeks without an argument and i'd like to keep it that way.

I fail to see how “is” makes that statement more valid

Good point.

So that makes two ways the sentence you wrote is flawed. Lets look for a third.

The sentence is only flawed if you aren’t understanding the intent

I think that was clear. I'm suggesting that the gender wage gap is a myth, so women spending time talking about it is them putting the boot on their own face. Or, maybe even better and also fitting the meme, most of the disparity that exists between men's and women's wages is due to choices that individual women make.

you can't be serious. the data is pretty clear that women make about $.78 on the dollar, and the "choice" of motherhood is typically something that includes both parents. i can't believe i even had to type that sentence.

real talk: minority women probably bring the average down

whitey always has it better

don’t let the ‘gender war’ distract you from the real game
