The point is I got stuck doing the dirty work because I was a guy. That's discrimination.I can state many reasons why women aren't doing equal work. Like in a lawyers office where men work over 100 hours a week but women don't. Or in that McDonalds example where men get the heavy/crap work, while women get the office jobs. Where women take more time off from work than men and therefore are less dependable.Maybe on the assembly line, 1 person has been there for 20 years and can do the job much better because of what he knows, compared to the new guy of 1 year, who still has much to learn. If a business like the NFL is only hiring MEN to do the job of MEN, then women should either get bigger and tougher, or sit it out, as what is happening now. You are not learning anything, because you continue to drink the liberal koolaid. Maybe have a beer or shot of rum, it could open your eyes.If two people are working on the same assembly line, why would they be paid different wages? Businesses have also used lower wages as a control mechanism. Should a business be able to hire only men? Only one race? Pay different genders or races different wages for the same work?
As for your supposition that I am a victim, you are no more accurate there than with your other claims. I have made a comfortable living for years in the utility construction industry. Not only am I not a victim, I am retiring early.
I can see why you didn't answer my question sooner. The other times I asked it I specified "all things being equal". My mistake. I thought that you, having read that numerous times, would understand the intent of the question.
Ok, if I need to be so specific.....
If two people are working on the same assembly line, doing the same work, with roughly the same time with the company, with roughly the same experience & qualifications, and no other duties for which they receive pay, why would they be paid different wages?
The point is, there are numerous examples of women being paid less than men when they are doing the same work. But, more importantly, an "Equal pay for equal work" law would protect everyone from such biased actions.
Describing jobs where they have different duties is not the point.
Ok. It is discrimination.
