  • Lol@this video.

    That has nothing to do with whether it is a man or a woman.

    He picked the better paying job, so he gets paid more.

    If "Jessica" was working the job that "Jack" was working, and Jack was working the job that Jessica was working, then Jessica would be the higher earner.

  • LoL, wow propaganda much? The video says they have different jobs and then says that stereotypes keep women with the same skills as men down, hypocrisy within the video, wow. And besides, equal pay for different work makes no sense. If "jessica" screws up in HR? More paperwork. If "Jack" screws up? People die because a crane falls on them. Wtf this is just as bad as nazi propaganda back in the 30's.

  • Absolute BULL@#$%! The number of people who can do Jessica's job is greater than the number of people who can do Jack's job.Jack's job,being more demanding,no doubt required Jack to pursue at least one specialised degree and an apprenticeship.Jessica's job likely did not.Jack's job will likely require him to delay starting a family many years after Jessica does,and will place more stress on his family.And if Jack were a ditch-digger,Jessica would very much resent his pay being equal to hers.

  • @san77vb yes, and the number of hours worked has absolutely nothing to do with the person who hires, writes the schedule, isn't stigmatized for taking time off (or when men aren't given pregnancy leave so their FEMALE spouse can STAY at work). "Jack" didn't just "pick" his job and do you really think women "choose" to get shafted economically by men. you're a pathetic lot.

  • @PahaLukki your wrong on onlie 1 thing, lonelie men kuz thehre arr aktuallie less men, the nummbers balance out after all the men die on the things you mentioned ^^ but theh still go lonlie

  • There is no pay gap...this has already been debunked.

  • This makes no sense at all. One of them managed construction projects and one was a human resources manager. Two different set of skills, two different jobs and two different wages, Of course they're going to have different career opportunities. Is this a fucking joke?

  • Well this was the best movie about making a stereotypically selective comparison based on the averaging of numbers.

    Here's a spoiler for the Director's Cut, though: Jack dies in the end. And 6.5 years later, Jessica dies as well.

  • who cares about this feminist shit. men are working in more productive areas than women.

  • Substituting discrimination for government sponsored discrimination. Well done!

  • @yogentleman Maybe is it "advertising"?
