gender pay inequality: injustice, or corporate science?

I was watching the news last night and they were talking about resurrecting the bill which would push for equal pay for women. That reminded me of a blog post I read last year.

Found this blog post here at hugeskeleton, but it can be read in its entirety below.




The other day I heard two pseudo-feminists in a cafe running their mouths about what they feel like is the biggest atrocity of the past century: The fact that women get paid less for doing the exact same job as a man. Little do these self serving rug munchers realize how incredibly wrong they are

In the private sector corporate world, nearly every process is calculated and crunched down to be as cost effective as possible. Why? So the boss hog at the top can squeeze out as much money as possible. If he's going to add to his set of gold inlaid malaysian orphanbone golf clubs every quarter without financial remorse, he better have his company exude efficiency. The amount people are paid is a result of what they're worth to the company. Of course there are exceptions - Little oversight about who actually gets things done, crappy bosses and managers, scummy credit-stealing coworkers, but generally speaking, women don't equal up. This is fairly universal - If this was an isolated incident, women would simply all flock to a different company. Why don't they add up you may ask?

Simply put, women are too busy rocking out to the beat of MC unproductivity. That's not a hiphop reference, I'm talking about Menstrual Cycle unproductivity. During that roughly 5-day-monthly funfest, women physiologically cannot put forth the same amount of focus and energy. Not just calling in sick, or excusing themselves for "girl problems", the productivity of nearby coworkers is also a problem. As a woman unnecessarily bitches about random things and lashes out, those nearby are sucked into the tornado of bullshit. If you're having trouble envisioning that, consider this crudely drawn graphical representation of the day by day menstrual timebomb

Familiar huh? The same concept applies to why women don't work well in positions of authority. How can we expect a woman CEO to play it cool with her corporation during a merger if she's ragging out on the other merger CEO, then inevitably getting some chief executive dick thrown into her meat socket? What about women power politicians. Be thankful we had some XY leadership after World War II, otherwise we'd be speaking Russian. There's no doubt a female president at the time would've enjoyed a bristly mustache ride on Stalin's jagged Soviet face prior to letting him turn her presidential pussy into a flappy set of Iron Curtains. I could go on, but it's nothing but trouble. Moving back to the main issue at hand:

Women get paid roughly 15-20% less than men of the same position. What's a 30 day month divided by 3 to 6 days? A shocking coincidence, I'll let you crunch the numbers.

Bonus takeaway: Planning on traveling anytime soon?

Here are the graphs of pay disparity for several foreign countries



If you are planning on visiting any country from below the US all the way down to Yemen, be advised. If you're trying to turn out some foreign ladyfriend at a hostel and she's ragging, It'd be wise to reference this upon learning her nationality (feel free to laminate it and put it in your wallet). As the pay gap widens, one can statistically assume women in that country's period enters heavy flow-territory. So unless you're trying to fry up a floppy shed-uterus steak marinated in cunt blood at 3A.M, steer clear.
