in the last few years the USWNT actually created MORE revenue than the men’s team for USSoccer. by your logic the women should be paid more than the men. Try again

Considering that the USWNT is the best team in the world, and the men’s team is middling at best, who gives a shit about revenues?

Female here. Federal government employee which means salaries are public.

Echoing your comments. I and many women who I’ve met across many (predominately male-dominated) industries have experienced repercussions for trying to negotiate for a higher wage, promotion, or starting salary. This occurs even when conducting extensive research to make a reasonable request.

You don’t know that it was only because you asked for more.

Your experience is why so many men have the illusion that the workplace is a meritocracy. You think that because you asked and received, everyone could. Please consider (and actually take time to read the above article?) that you are still benefiting from the fact that you are male, and that others cannot simply…

Female here. Mid-level IT, background in cybersecurity and ethical hacking.

Same. I’ve started getting ghosted now that I’ve been in my industry for several years and have a pretty good job I wouldn’t leave for less money. It’s demoralizing and exhausting.

I think a lot of guys don’t realize how some managers respond to an “uppity” woman vs a “determined” man who are asking for the same thing.

Democrats need to propose a bill to force the Arkansas Department of Fish & Game to gather records related to every applicant’s “entire sporting history” before deciding whether it is appropriate to issue the applicant a hunting or fishing license.

So confused, and horrified, but let’s focus on confused. I investigate a woman’s pregnancy history and find out: 1. That she’s had 20 million abortions and one conviction for eating fetuses, 2. That she’s never been pregnant before, 3. That she’s had 3 healthy children, 4. That she’s actually a Martian. Okay, WTF do I…

It would withstand legal challenges in an America with Merrick Fucking Garland on the SCOTUS. But, you know, Repukes. They hate women. Except Stepford Wives.

There is no way this withstands legal challenges. It’s not only an invasion of privacy, but it’s an imposition on medical professionals. Doctor’s job is not to “investigate”. This is the kind of “oppressive regulation” Republicans claim to be against.

Deeply disturbing as well are the conversations I’ve seen on forums like previously.com exposing some SERIOUS misconceptions about abusive relationships. Lots of stuff about “this is totally unrealistic, she’s a smart lawyer! She’s so well educated! That woman would NEVER put up with that kind of abuse IRL!”
