???

what does this have to do with the pay gap? Less pay doesn't always come in at the hiring process, it materializes later as women are passed up on promotions. Besides, most of the pay gap is due to women being kept in lower-paying occupations.

I’m mocking how the people who think these things clearly don’t think because they can’t see the giant gaping holes in their reasoning when their logic is carried through to its conclusion.

But you can do that with anything if you pretend to misunderstand it. "Oh the air is full of oxygen? Why isn't everything on fire all the time?" The pay gap is a well-documented phenomenon, you can't just say it's not true because it doesn't line up with what you think.

Acshually, “air” is only 21% oxygen, which in my opinion isn’t full. Sorry, had to channel my inner Oscar
