…while sexist Dame Judi Dench spouts sexist bullshit in a voice over…
Here’s my response:
Warren Farrel and the Myth of male power
Warren Farrel on why women make less in some instances
Both of these are quite long, especially the first, but they have some incredible insights and an interesting perspective. The very interesting thing about Warren is that he was once a leader in the feminist movement. One of the reasons women make less is that they tend to prioritize social lives over work lives.

I hadn’t thought about introducing Farrell…I just figured the nonsense she spouted was so obviously nonsense (“women account for 2/3rds of the work that is done”) that actual data wasn’t even necessary. But yes, Farrell is top notch.

^I’ve read Warren Farrell’s myth of male power. It’s fascinating.
Oh please, there’s no such thing as equality. In the end it’s not about men are better or equal then women. It’s about what you can do.
If you work in moving furniture bussiness you have to be strong, apparently most men are stronger then women. No employer in his right mind is going to hire a woman because “she’s a woman and she “has rights””. He’s going to hire her if she can fulfill the demands. It’s more inneficient to hire women, especially since they get pregnant and you have to pay them.
That’s reality.
Thanks for the help.
“women are responsible for two thirds of the work done world-wide”
Wow. Measured in what units? Watts?
EDIT: oh, just noticed I am not the only one deeply touched by this phrase.
Where did you read that?
Edit: nvm, I just watched the whole non-sense.
