[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women are doing better than ever and yet still complaining about the "patriarchy". None of it makes sense. [/quote]
You nailed it. None of it makes sense. 
Women are doing better than men but are complaining about gender discrimination.

It does make sense.  Most people, men or women, aren't in positions of power, but those in position of power are still largely men.

OP is saying that in her circle, she sees a lot of women who do better career wise than their men. That doesn't mean that they are at executive level, where again, it's mostly made up of men.[/quote]

If that’s really the case, then the whole “equal pay for equal work” thing starts to feel like one of the biggest scams ever. It seems like most people aren’t even directly affected by it. It’s really just a battle for the top 1% elite. But it’s been packaged like it’s about the everyday working woman. Women have been brainwashed to believe they’re being underpaid across the board.[/quote]
The anecdotal situations that we see aren't necessary reflected in all areas of the workplace.

There are some industries where pay gap is still an issue. But, I do think with more awareness, more women being educated and in the workforce a lot longer, the pay gap is starting to lessen, which brings us full circle to the topic of this thread.

[quote]Much of the gender pay gap has been explained by measurable factors such as educational attainment, occupational segregation and work experience. The narrowing of the gap over the long term is attributable in large part to gains women have made in each of these dimensions.[/quote]

It's great that women are upping their game, and starting to close that gender gap - yay - even as they still do most of the housechores and childcare.  It's sad that men have become stagnant and bring less and less to the relationship.

I have a 20 year old DS, and a 17 yr old DD.  Both DH and I have made sure that both of our children know how to cook, clean, and become financially independent.[/quote]
