Sexual equality is ridiculous, Paychecks. Options

[Simba]

So there's been an issue with men being paid more than women when it comes to jobs.

Say a girl and a boy around the same age worked at the same store (and were paid equally). Now say they went on a date. Chances are, the girl wouldn't spend a dime and the boy would be spending all of his hard-earned money. The girl would only end up spending her paycheck on herself. The point? Men have more needs for money than women do. Men fundamentally have a need to spend more money than women do.

Generally, men are paid more than women for the same jobs because, well, men have more demands for money than women do. Men want paying jobs. Women want glamorous jobs. Women never seem to demand that half of sewage workers or half of window cleaners are female.


And I'm just going to put it out there now, I don't follow any of the above, but I'm willing to debate with you anyway.

So, what you're saying here is, women deserve money because they're a bunch of materialistic hos?

Women don't get as much money because they're a dead investment.

Men are never satisfied, are they? If we're not materialistic bitches, we'll be bitches who don't give a shit about their appearance and look extremely unattractive. But that's not good for you either. Then you'll be all like, "Well, hoe, you look like an ape, how do you expect me to date you?!" or "OH MY FREAKIN' GOD, YOU DON'T SHAVE?! YOU THINK WE'RE IN THE JUNGLE OR SOMETHING?!" or "I can't see your face. It's lost in all the hair. Or wait, IS that hair?..."

Make up your mind, will ya?

Men pay the bills of the house, the cars, the insurance, the family income, etc. Simply, men get paid more because in a typical family, the husband goes to work while the woman stays at home.

I believe there will never be sexual equality in the world, that God created man before a woman for a reason, taking one part of Adam to make Eve. There should, however, be a fine line for wages and rights though.

How's it like to live in the 18th century?

So what does any of this have to do with women deserving more money?

We do need to buy all these things. Hence, we do need just as much money as men.

Need?

You wanna pull this "well we need makeup or men won't like us?" bullshit? Then how about men need more money because they need expensive cars, clothes and houses to impress women? Therefore, men need more money than women and it's totally fair.

Nah, having expensive cars and caring for your appearance are two different things. Honestly, how many times have you gone out with a chick who doesn't do anything for her appearance?

I never said "more". I just said as much ;) If you guys are saying men have to pay for dates and that's why they deserve more money, why shouldn't I use make up to argue the contrary? It's totally fair.

No, that's not what I'm saying at all. Men make more money because they earn more money. They DESERVE more money. Not because they NEED more money.

Women are dead investments in the workplace; that is why they do not deserve as much money as men. That is why they do not make as much money as men.

You can try to pull this artificial need bullshit all you want. You know what, tell your employer, the next time you ask for a raise, use your argument to get the raise. Good luck keeping your job.

Seriously, get over yourselves, it's retarded when both men and women bitch about eachother. Men and Women are equal whether you like that or not, see that or not, it's the truth. Both have their own weaknesses and strength but both are designed from mother nature as equals. So if a man and woman does the exact same job then they should be payed equally. The only down side is that for some stupid reason women are paid less. It's the 21st century and our society is still like this? what a joke.

You just contradicted yourself. Men and Women are equal whether you like that or not, see that or not, it's the truth. Both have their own weaknesses and strength.... Fail.

Too bad on a whole, men and women DON'T do the same exact job. That's why women tend to get paid less, because they are weaker, usually don't have the required intelligence and companies know they aren't a dependable source of work due to the fact that they have babies.

They deserve more money? Why are women a dead investment? Can you at least elaborate on that? It sounds pretty superficial and stereotypical to me.

And I don't need to talk to my employer about a raise.. Last time I got $500 for a concert and I played for 10 minutes. ;) And of course I'm not going to use that reason to get a raise. I was basing my argument on the original one. "Men pay for dates, so they deserve more money." Complete bullshit.

due to the fact that they have babies.

Fact? I'm not having kids. Not only me, but lots of other women as well.
