see the Peterson and science section for a number of pretty devastating refutations of Peterson's understanding of lobster biology, the gender pay gap, and personality testing.https://www.patreon.com/posts/jordan-peterson-17972181 …
I keep being sent the musicians thing. I send the one showing blind applications benefit women in STEM in response.

The linked paper you did is hypothetical. It doesn't match the findings with actual hires. It's important to look at the overall field, not cherry pick studies that agree with youn

We could both say that to each other. Let's not. If you can show men and women getting paid different amounts for the same jobs for the same hours, I'll believe that is happening.
-
Helen, again that wouldn't actually prove anything. Women and men make *choices* about how much they work.
-
Well, that's what I want to know. Whether the pay gap is being caused by women being paid less for the same work as men. If they're being paid less because because of their own choices, I don't care. They have the right to choose that.
-
Men are not the default humans. We really don't need to worry if women don't make exactly the same choices as they do.
-
No one is claiming they are.
-
Then it should be OK for women to choose to work less than men because they favour a better work/life balance?
-
Yes, but that doesn't show a lack of discrimination.

Have you read standard reviews in economics of this, such as Blau and Kahn 2017? Better yet, can you link to an economist who claims the wage gap doesnt exist, as you asserted?
-
Everyone knows the wage gap exists. The disagreement is about whether it a problem or just the result of different life choices.
