People want to help, but if their diagnosis of the problem is wrong, they aren’t helping at all!

In France, even a right-wing newspaper (Le Figaro) and a supposedly centrist government, actually right-wing, consider this a reality and a problem, not as a false/true debate :http://www.lefigaro.fr/conjoncture/2018/03/07/20002-20180307ARTFIG00331-reduire-les-ecarts-salariaux-hommes-femmes-une-priorite-de-l-executif.php …

No, they don’t understand statistics or economics and neither do you, clearly.

INSEE is THE statistics reference in France. It's their job, not mine. We have a french expression to name the problem : "glass ceiling". There is a kind of "glass ceiling" for women in corporations, that's how we often speak about it.

That paper you linked was just wrong man, you’re arguing about authority right now when I’m arguing the facts and the science. Unless you understand this stuff, we can’t have a discussion. Because you don’t understand how that INSEE article is just meaningless statistic until..

No, The articles only USES INSEE statistics, it comes from the inequality observatory, an engaged institute. I only say that they use reliable datas. But I have found it just right now. I bring it as an example not as the base of what I say, that seems obvious in France.

Then that is not the paper I’m asking for because it doesn’t answer the question at all, it just tells us the average and that there is a difference, no multivariate factor analysis whatsoever. Not questioning he integrity of the data gathering.

I do not believe in the virtues of perfect equality but I hope that more women in power would have a positive effect on our societies. Bonobo societies are matriarchal and bonobos are less violent than chimpanzees. The two probably (not completely sure e.g. Thatcher) go together.

Women having interests that tend towards the social seems to me good reason for getting them more involved in politics and business, absolutely, but I agree. Women are still people and we should always expect conflict when it comes to people haha

I didn't know all this would be that controversial. I agree too, now, and I don't completely take great apes as models, it was also a kind of discreet joke

Hahaha yes I think that would be unwise
well it’s fairly controversial in America right now, just like apparently everything else.
