I have heard people blabbering about it before... but havent seen any solid evidence yet ... why cant you provide some evidence if you think that is true... lets see what were the parameters included in that research and what made some people think thats the case... You cant take salary of all the working men and all the working women and say "look women are being paid less".... you have to compare the exact same job worked by a man and a woman and then show me the stats that a woman is really being underpaid for the exact same work done as a man... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If gender pay gap is not real, why would you see those statistics. In fact the biggest pay gap that you see is in assistant professors (since I am familiar with this). Female assistant professors in general get paid 90% of what male professors make. What is worse is even if you go higher up in the ladder of tenure, you see lesser number of female associate professors and an even lesser proportion of female professors. But more importantly, the gender pay gap raises as you move up the ladder. Most full professors who make upwards of 300k are mostly men, and women full professors make much less when compared to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a question to begin with and it was seeking a plausible explanation and not a stereotype. Are you the kind of person who assigns an effect to only one cause?

Are you the kind of person who assigns an effect to only one cause? You're the one that's stereotyping women as someone who give up their career for their *** family or whatever. Like, shouldn't a man ever do the same? Why is it a woman's responsibility? If men in leadership roles stereotype women like the way you're right now, no wonder women are not hired into leadership roles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in your mind is that question turning into a stereotype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because you're stereotyping women as someone that would care for their family more than their job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meowalpha Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Like I said men in leadership positions tend to stereotype women like the way you're and not hire them or assume that they are not efficient or smart or worthy of their job, just the way you're.

It is a question and nothing more. Are you saying that “men don’t take risks in their career because they have to take care of their wife and children” is also stereotyping? There are many men who don’t take up risky opportunities only because they have a family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess only the exams in the state have this. JEE does have a separate list for females other than the general category. Why do they need that if they are just as smart as males? Coming to my original question, should women who take all the advantages like getting reserved seats in buses to being the first choice in colleges still complain about minority reservations?

There are many men who don’t take up risky opportunities only because they have a family. I am saying that the reason you don't see women in leadership roles is because women are stereotyped from their childhood. Like you're a girl, you should do this, or you're a woman, you shouldn't do this. That's why a lot of women don't see themselves in big positions, because they don't have enough drive to do the same. Also the lack of female role models, driven by gender stereotypes is another reason. Women or any socially backward class are equally capable as men or any forward class is, it's just that they don't realize it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
