Articles on Men returning home and the Reverse wage gap
Posted on 2/20/18 at 8:25 am

do women earn more than men in their early 20s
younger men more likely to live with parents.
Do you guys think there is a young male development problem?
I don't think so, and I have theories which these feminist articles overlook.
1. Younger women have more options regarding living away from home. A lot of younger women marry/cohabitate with older or more established men (like the OT) so they have a financial cushion through marriage even if their job is low wage. Young men don't have this option (in meaningful #s)
2. If a divorce occurs, the higher earner is forced to pay child support and alimony. Men return home because that's all they can afford to do.
3. Women get more degrees, but it is common knowledge in industry that women get the lionshare of less marketable degrees. Trades are scoffed at, even though most of them provide better $ than degrees women earn.
Not in my posted articles, but the occupations where women average more money are normally low paying.
I'm more confused on this topic, so please enlighten me. Why do women appear to earn more in their 20s.

Boys are being left behind in schools but it's not convenient for the narrative so no one addresses it. Also, 3rd wave feminism is about revenge so watching males fail and fall behind is something they celebrate.

Strippers and hooters girls get paid more. Bouncers and fry cooks get paid less

It's very simple, there's a large majority of our male population who cant change a fricking tire, let alone actually fend for themselves.
There are outliers but I have figured the cutoff age to be right around ~26-27 of where we lost a segment of the male population until the very young currently grow up and corrects the situation.
That and we have literally started giving women the upper hand in virtually everything via legislation and pandering.
However, most women still want a strong man who can actually be a hunter-gatherer. Which bodes well for that segment of the male population looking for a partner.

IIRC there are more women than men at all levels of the post secondary education pyramid. If that is the case then I would say yes.

Absolutely 100%. But I don't give a shite because I'm raising my son to be a man who will trample those little shits under his boots.

I've never heard this term. I like it, it takes away from what the foundation of feminism was based on.

Nailed it. Girls are celebrated in schools while boys are belittled and glossed over for being boys.

I wish people would stop saying things like reverse wage gap, reverse sexism, reverse racism, etc. It's not reverse anything it's just a wage gap.

They're being punished and drugged up for being boys. It's not healthy.

I don't know about your question, but this is an absolute gem from the first article you linked.

Fawcett Society, which campaigns for gender equality, suggested more senior roles would go to women if they were offered on a part-time, or job-share, basis. “Unless there is good reason not to do so, that should be a company’s default thinking,”

But the real truth of the matter is women get hired for their looks in their 20s, even "professionals". Hot nurse, hot secretary, hot lawyer, etc. then they move on the career track til they leave to have kids and when they come back they get put behind a desk someplace because they're not really hot anymore but they've also missed a lot of getting good at their job while their kids were young
Men get to start at the bottom in their 20s and then they work their way up to make more later

Boy dominated subjects like science and history have become such small elements of their educations. These boys are constantly held to the same standard as the girls, resulting in over diagnosis of ADD and the over prescribing of meds. Pretty sad stuff.

I realize this. But again, if the modern economy has taught us anything, its that degree does not always translate to skill or more $.
Some professions are more valuable than others.

I've done a lot of reading on this topic. Its mostly in the areas of what we view as "social intelligence"
People also overlook the fact that women are usually in charge of child rearing. That responsibility alone forces them to prioritize responbilities, which is all maturity really is.

That’s cause the teachers are too busy trying to frick them.
