Gender Stereotypes Receive Unequal Pay

Since the dawn of time, men have been superior beings. Cave paintings dating around 38,000 BCE depict caveMEN hunting animals and providing for their families, while the cowardly women hid in their caves. As time progressed men took on the role of the breadwinner, conducting business everyday, working hard, and bringing home all of the money. Nevertheless, the women stayed home running the whole household by themselves without maintaining a job. This continues today because women are simply not as fit as men to survive in the workforce. Yet somehow women question that supremacy by demanding equal pay. How can both genders possibly receive equal pay when they are not equal? Clearly an absurd request as homo sapiens are also known as huMANs.
Maybe the old people had it right all along, keeping women from working
real jobs. Women are too dainty and fragile to face the obstacles the real world presents in the workplace. Therefore, society should collectively agree that in order to solve this wage gap, women should not even work at all. Instead, they can be set free, slaving away over their household chores. The best part is, there is no payment involved! Now the wage gap would be so prominent, that it would just cease to exist altogether.
According to Harvard University Economics Professor Claudia Goldin, women may earn 77 cents on the dollar compared to Men. However, as a woman, is she really a reliable source? It is true that she attended Cornell University and completed her doctorate in economics at the University of Chicago, but Goldin is a woman after all. It could be better for everyone if she, along with the rest of the female gender, would just be a simple housewife. A recent Yale study by Corinne Moss-Racusin and colleagues suggests that no one, not even scientists, “are completely immune to gender discrimination”. Two applications were submitted to science faculty at Yale University, one with the name Jennifer at the top and the other, John. The data reveals that the Male applicant was offered about $4000 more per year than his female counterpart. However, this research was lead by none other than a woman--- surprise, surprise. This issue has an easy fix! Women should just not apply to anything. That way, a female applicant cannot theoretically be awarded an inferior wage than a Male. Just give up already! Wage gap, gone; case, closed.
Although even monkeys reject unequal pay, they are less developed than humans and do not possess the cognitive abilities people do (Brosnan).
Professor Jenny Graves of the Research School of Biology at the Australian National University predicts the Y chromosome, which produces Men, will disappear within the next 5 million years. Meaning that the Male gender could ultimately desist, leaving only women. If this forecast is true, the world will be doomed. Women need Men because they have all the money! Some people argue that women should be the breadwinners and Men should stay at home, taking care of the children while cooking and cleaning. But, those people are uneducated to the fact that women are not capable enough for this kind of independence.
Do women even provide any useful advantages to the workplace? No! Women only bring pain and suffering. Excluding women means that Men do not have to deal with the hormonal mess that is a woman on her period. And hear that? Of course not, because removing women is eliminating nagging! Last but not least, putting women in their place and getting rid of their income completely promises more money for the Men of the
world!
Not only is the wage gap real, but it needs to be closed. Men are paid more than women, and it is not because they are superior in any way. Both genders are human, and there is no arguing with that Astonishingly, some people blame women for this unequal payment; citing female’s life choices, unfair stereotypes, and so-called inferior capabilities. It seems that society is breeded at a young age to treat girls and boys differently. This has translated into unfortunate future for women, receiving a lesser salary and even being denied pay for maternity leave. Resolving this significant issue requires that gender biases be eradicated while the federal government and labor unions have strict laws prohibiting unequal pay. Sadly, in only a matter of weeks, President Donald Trump’s administration has deactivated the White House’s webpage on unequal pay and to add salt to this wound, the end of the url is “myth”. Despite the President of the United States of America’s ignorance, women and men can have an equal role in the workforce, and the world. Equal pay for equal work is just the first step in reaching this average objective.
