    Right....so starting a thread about personally experiencing sexism but won't elaborate?
    What is the point of the thread?

    Gender aside, experiencing sexism can be as personal and offensive as being otherwise molested, depending on the situation.

    Regardless, to demand details of such strikes me as intrusive, and a bit rude - from here, anyway. I can't imagine anyone with some semblance of empathy asking "so what happened, anyway?" of any other person who was violated in some way.

    Guessing if the experience wanted to be shared, it would've been.

    And who knows, maybe you'll luck out getting the full details!

    Thank goodness for the men out there who get it. AND the women.

    Imagine if every voice was personally heard in each and every march.
    What a difference it would make.
    Marching around stating that you personally experienced "sexism the other day" doesn't hold much water nowadays.
    What happened and what needs to change?

    What is the point of the thread?
    the point of the thread wasn't about personal experience, but it may have been what inspired the need to post about the topic. from what I know of Kat, you won't receive the answer you seek. Nor should you expect to.

    it is a FACT that women make about 70% of the wages men do for doing the same job. if that isn't enough in and of itself, I don't know what is.

    if YOU made 7/10 of what a woman made at what you do, for no other reason than your gender, damn right you'd be pissed about it, don't you think?

    That myth has been debunked over and over.

    The total compensation often works out to just about equal.

    If your argument were true then why hire men if you could get a labor force 30% cheaper? It is ridiculous.

    And the above graph compares the same career path or all employed? Looks like all employed.

    Are you really parroting that ignorant "why wouldn't companies hire only men" line?

    Good point. Let's look at that, shall we?

    One year after graduation, it was found that women earned 82 percent of what the men earned, with similar education and experience as their male counterparts. 10 years after graduation, those women were only earning 69 percent of what the men were earning. After accounting for occupation, hours worked, age, college major, and many other factors, an astonishing seven percent difference between the earnings of women and men was left unaccounted for within a year of graduation and a 12 percent unexplained difference was found within 10 years.

    Out of the 20 most common occupations for women and the 20 most common occupations for men, only four occupations are shared in these lists. A mere 5.4 percent of women work in male-dominated fields.

    “Women in ‘male’ jobs such as computer programming still face a pay gap compared with their male counterparts.” In 2012, female computer programmers earned 84% of what male computer programmers earned. Female financial managers earned an astounding 70% of what male financial managers earned. Female lawyers earned only 80% of what male lawyers earned.

    ...you were saying...?

    I just don't get that all these women and proponent males of their voice who say they make less but don't give concrete examples other than statistics and graphs.
    Pretty sure a waiter/waitress is paid the same hourly wage, grocery clerk, etc.
    When in comes to business salary is often based on qualifications and education level.
    Speak up and state your discrimination and don't be general.
    Anyone can state "I personally experienced .....", but without the example the point is moot.

    I guarantee if you were a female that lived the the United States, it would sure as fuck mean something to you.

    And to your final ridiculous point, the poll numbers were PROJECTIONS, not actual STATISTICS.

    To your first point - Are you saying that a female in the USA will make less statistically at say Starbucks?, insert any restaurant name etc.

    To your second point - Projections are as meaningless as statistics, I mean President Trump was supposed to be a loser remember?
