[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good for them. Nothing is more demoralizing than explaining to my daughters and neices that their work is worth a fraction of a man's. [/quote] Send them to college in STEM and forget soccer. I am a former woman soccer player that has a grad degree in a STEM field and I was never paid less than my male colleagues. I’m 49 and I’m a Senior position. Competitive soccer helped me not be a shrinking violet/whiner in the workplace.[/quote] I had no plans for my girls to be professional athletes. That doesn't mean they can't look around them and see inequality. Women being paid less than men for the same work is a societal problem that should be addressed with more than just an attitude of "go into this job to avoid it". Way to pigeonhole girls and women! We deserve better. [/quote]
