Bit long but interesting.
the gender pay gap (the average salary paid to women against the average salary paid to men)
is caused because some women leave employment or take a long career beak to look after a family
The only solution to that is to encourage an equal number of men to leave employment/take a long career break to look after the family
nothing else works (or is a fair solution)

He seemed to waffle an aweful lot without actually saying much. I'd like to know what he thinks about some of the weird shit they come up with here. I mean they set up special course so that some women get promote d so we have this athena swan group and that looks only at women, then we h ave our equality committee and the head of that told me that they are fight ing for womens rights.
When I started work in the '60s for the BBC, everyone doing the same job which had a BBC grade was paid the same male or female. Although in those days it wasn't that common to have males and females doing the same job.
The problem is more with those like talent where each contract is individual.
Just OOI, how does that compare with waffling an awful lot without saying much that is actually comprehendible?
Was your degree in 'Barking up the wrong tree' and with the ball in your court, make sure you don't bite off more than you can chew so make sure it cut's the mustard.

comprehendible to who, you or me.
Well, one would assume it should be comprehendible by you because you said it (no guarantees of course) and so by me / anyone?

That's why you must make things clear. I thought it was quite clear that he was plugging his book, I;ve no idea what you thought he was doing, that's for uo to decide.
Well until you watch it you'll never know. Your type always has a short attention span.
Long words are more impressive when they're correctly spelled.
Well it is worth watching for one minute starting at 22:00. If only to see Kathy Newman lost for words.
There are some occupations where the gender pay gap is the other way round such as in Professional Tennis where the women don't have to play as many matches to receive their prize payouts as the men have to do in their tournaments.
I'm perfectly capable of concentrating on a program for 30 minutes
it's that I have 200 episodes of things that I do want to watch already in the queue

If women did the same job as men for less money, why are any men at all in employment?
you will note that I did not make that claim at all in my post
because they don't (get less pay for the same job)

In the sex industry women get paid more.
do they?
there may be many more of them, but ITYF that the men in the "industry" get paid better (on average)
