Guess what? Traditionally, women couldn't own property in the United States.

Women still make only $.80 for every $1 a man earns. That means that a woman will have to work a decade longer to earn as much as a man.

Fun fact: A 1600s law in Massachusetts proscribed that a woman suffer the same punishment as a witch if they "tempted" man into marriage by wearing high-heeled shoes.

Women don't make 80 cents to every dollar of a man... you're blatantly lying.

That said, if she sucks, she sucks....nothing is deserved because she is female.

You're wrlcome

Here's a fun fact for you: No one cares who's the first, or one of the first females to do ANYTHING. The criticism is based off of basic observations that have nothing to do with gender. I think it's annoying that she tries to sound masculine, but I would think the same of a man trying to sound like a woman. I'm an equal opportunity critic, and I would say most here are, as well.

Here's another thing for you to chew on. What women make as compared to men is ON AVERAGE. There are plenty of women who make more than most men. But because most women aren't like you, and they believe in traditional family values, and that a mother should be home with her children, a lot of women don't really pursue a career, and thus they make less money on average. It has nothing to do with prejudice. Women have opportunities now that they never dreamed of a hundred years ago. But, just like the rest of the phony social justice movements, people would rather cling to the past so that they can have something to feel sorry for themselves about.

6 charts show how much more men make than women

Actually, WHODATINCA is absolutely correct. The article above from 8/27/2018 in the respectable BusinessInsider.com states the following:

Over half a century after the US passed the Equal Pay Act, American women still face a substantial gender wage gap across the spectrum.

Today, on average, a woman earns 80.5 cents for every dollar a man earns, and women's median annual earnings are $10,086 less than men's, according to data from the US Census Bureau.

While progress has been made toward pay parity between the sexes, the Institute for Women's Policy Research estimates that it will not be reached until 2059.

The six charts below illustrate the significant pay discrepancies between men and women based on race, age, geographical location, and more.
The rest of the article show absolute support for the numbers. And it isn't just this one source. The same number can be found all over with little effort.

Unfortunately, it is the sad truth.

The statistics are correct as they are framed, but the framing is skewed. People are interpreting as women making 20% less for doing the same job. Which just isn't the case.

As a fan of women's college basketball I have been listening to Mowins call games for almost 25 years. Her voice has always held that same timber. It is how she has always talked. Perhaps it is the fact that I am so used to her call that I didn't even notice anything out of place in her call this Monday.

That said, I really don't have any issue with any play-by-play or color announcer. To me they are nothing more than background noise sharing information while I am watching the game.

Actually it's a lie. It had been demonstrated over and over. They're taking all jobs and figuring the money earned over all fields and putting it into one pile. Women choose to work in fields that offer naturally lower compensation. When you take a male and female engineer with the same time in the field and working the same hours the compensation is near identical.

Being Intentionally dishonest about something is shameful.

Bingo, it's a lie and shameful how the liars know and understand this, but still pretend their ignorance.
