There's complex, tough and so-far unresolved issues regarding gender pay. And then there's outright no-good unethical, hopefully illegal, gender pay discrimination against women.
Claire Miller, in a NYTimes article about nursing, screams bloody discrimination about nurses. But is it? Nursing is a field where over 90% of the most experienced nurses are women. More importantly, there is no rash of lawsuits with simple charges and simple solutions.
Once again, feminists are confusing lots of issues and hollering 'discrimination.' Instead, feminists and business people and everyone have zillions of cases of outright, no-good, unethical, hopefully illegal, cases of gender pay discrimination against women. Let's deal with the obvious cases.
We featured two obvious and hypocritical cases recently in this blog:
1.Fearless Girl. State Street Corporation builds a statue about empowering women, but discriminates against its own female employees, even executives, as a lawsuit has pointed out.
2.Fired Google Engineer. Google fires a 28 year old male engineering for quoting the science (which is found on Google) that males have more testosterone, and thus more spatial ability, than women. Then Google is sued by its own female employees for gender pay discrimination.
Point A is dealing with the outright no-good unethical, illegal gender pay discrimination against women.
We're not even at Point A. But we will explore Point B next, and why it is so complex and hard to get from Point A to Point B. Claire Miller, our gender editor, doesn't even have a clue about Point B, much less how to get from Point A to Point B.
