There are also cultural expectations that make women "bad workers"- it is acceptable, even somewhat expected for a father to be neglectful to their children because of work requirements, but women must balance between necessary childcare and appearing to be working too little, which is a difficult process that gets harder the higher up the ladder you move. As a consequence, a woman who puts in the same effort and time as a man is obviously neglecting her children if she has them, so she's definitely not the kind of person you want to work with. If she puts in adequate time for her children, she's not a hard worker. If a woman doesn't have children, of course, this produces its own prejudices that work against her.

Who What Now posted:Where are you still seeing that percentage lately? Every single serious source I've read in the last decade all say it's somewhere in the mid single digits range, between 4-7%. The only places I ever see 30% in this day and age is on MRA blogs bitching about how it's not actually 30% because *shits pants uncontrollably*. Pew determined the total gap, before looking at occupational structures and the like, at 16% in 2013.

on the left posted:If women view having children as more important than career, they shouldn't be surprised when they are shoved aside by people who choose to focus on career. VHEM 4 life, brah.
