Comment on Women earn 78 cents for every $1 men paid on average.

Wait so now the pay gap isn’t about women being paid less than men for doing the same job, since that has been proven to be a big fat lie, but is now about women earning less on average across all jobs? What a joke.

Women and men do different jobs. Women don’t tend to work in the mines, in construction, on fishing boats, etc - all dangerous but high paying jobs. Men don’t tend to be healthcare workers or teachers or secretaries or yoga teachers, all lower paying and less risky jobs. This is why women earn less on average - the jobs they do pay less, no matter what sex you are. It’s not a “gender” pay gap, it’s a job pay gap. Some jobs pay more than others, more at 9!

Yeah i read that article, Brisbane Broncos Rugby league club has a massive gender pay gap of 66 cents. Every dollar a man makes on average the woman makes 33 cents.

But we gotta figure 18 of those men are players earning stupid money

Then the women are maybe coaches physics drs etc

The whole article is ridiculous, just riding the coattails of the gender pay gap.

They went on to say the median pay gap coe all jobs is 12 cents. That’s not really that bad to be honest. A great deal of improvement.

Then they cherry picked Sydney woman’s Ultrasound company where the pay gap is 88 cents between men and women.

I can only assume the woman are receptionists etc and the men Drs.

Surly it’s not 88 cents different between male and female Drs

Not “now”, and not a lie. This is what it has always been about.

  Nope, it was previously about women earning less than men for doing the same job.
