re: Women want equal pay? Stop babysitting

This is tangential to the conversation. So there are things women can't do. Granted. But we're talking about how much they get paid for the same work that men do. So the oil rig jobs are not really part of the debate at all.

Yes it is. The "equal pay" argument and the bullshite math that goes with it incorporates ALL jobs done by men and women, and lumps them into this argument. If you limit the argument to jobs that men and women both do, there is no pay gap. The gap exists because men do higher paying jobs.
