While looking through a discussion board, this sentence caught my eye and now I just can't stop thinking about it:
(the poster shall remain anonymous; was a male)
"Women with more education are coming close to earning as much as men with less education when they hold the same job and have the same amount of experience."
Why should women have to be higher educated to earn "close" to what a man with less earns? Now don't you think if you have a higher educated WOMAN OR MAN, you know that they have the drive to further themselves? If it were two men, and one had a higher education than the other, the higher educated male would earn more.
Yes, that would be fair. But right now a woman has to not only have more education, but she has to work harder and longer to get less pay than that male counterpart. And even more for recognition. lets not touch on respect.... "she works like a man"..... no.... I work harder.
