Well, yeah, but what both the feminists & the MRAs need to realise is that men are not the default humans and women aren't doing life wrong if we don't make exactly the same choices in exactly the same numbers. I'll never be rich as a nurse or lit scholar but both make me happy.

Simplistic. I say this as someone who spent 17 years running around, mopping up bodily fluids & having had two lots of stitches in my face and a shattered kneecap whilst surrounded by female colleagues.

Yes male dominated jobs are the most dangerous now that we have better infection control to protect nurses & 1 in 4 women no longer die in childbirth but most jobs aren't dangerous and the most dangerous jobs aren't the best paid. This cannot account for much of the difference.

It's still women's job tho. Many choose it despite pain, injury, danger. I know it's an earnings gap. I'm not disagreeing with that. I'm disagreeing that men are always the ones who do the hard, dirty & painful jobs.

I'm not just talking about differences in income. I'm talking about life and roles that men and women take on for themselves, for each other, for their families. I object to the idea that men do all the hard stuff for noble reasons whilst women have it easy.
