Endlich einmal konstruktive Vorschläge für die Beseitigung des Gender Pay Gaps:
But enough of this rationalisation. It’s 2018 and the gender pay gap should have been laid to rest a long time ago. To this end, I’d like to present some suggestions for tackling this sexist scourge on our society, four small proposals for campaigners to rally behind.
Konkrete Vorschläge, mit denen man den Gender Pay Gap endlich beseitigen kann. Was kann man mehr wollen?
Firstly, we need to stop letting girls choose which subjects to study. Although there are more women than men at university, men still dominate in physics, economics and engineering. If we’re serious about addressing the gender pay gap, then women need to be banned from gender studies, sociology, psychology and all branches of arts and humanities. Perhaps then they’ll aim for higher paid careers in the science and technology sectors. And if they don’t, then perhaps quotas should be instigated so women are compelled to take their fair share of places in labs.
Das wäre in der Tat ein wirksames Mittel: Denn Frauen entscheiden sich in freieren Gesellschaften eher gegen die Naturwissenschaften als in weniger freien. Also muss ein Gegendruck aufgebaut werden.
Then, we need a campaign to cut back on maternity leave and for far more bosses to step up to the plate and refuse women permission to work part-time once they have children. As a recent report from the IFS shows, part-time work plays a major role in the gender pay gap. Women who work part-time initially earn the same as their male colleagues but over a number of years their pay begins to lag. They are not actually at work as much as full-time colleagues and so they gain experience more slowly, miss out on some training opportunities and are less likely to apply for promotion. Women need to be prevented from sabotaging their career prospects in this way.
Wahrscheinlich der einzige Weg, ein langes Aussetzen zu verhindern: Ein Arbeitszwang möglichst kurz nach der Geburt und zwar in Vollzeit. Endlich kann man nicht mehr als Rabenmutter bezeichnet werden, man wird ja gezwungen und darf nicht anders.
After that, we need to consider cutting men’s wages. Fortunately, this is already being given serious consideration and is actually happening at the BBC. John Humphries set men everywhere a noble example when he agreed to a pay cut. As an added bonus: bosses will love this measure. Not only will wage bills be reduced but they get good feminist points too. Indeed, Tesco could easily solve its impending equal pay law suit by paying male warehouse staff less. If families that pool money to pay the bills lose out well, so be it. It’s not about demanding higher wages but principles and equality, right? Women will just have to spend more time at work to make up the shortfall. Win win!
Richtig, man muss einfach mal den Lohn reduzieren, denn anders geht es nicht. Wenn die Männer das ungerecht finden, weil sie zB mehr Überstunden machen oder ungünstigere Schichten übernehmen, dann können sie ja einfach die Frauen animieren, dies künftig für sie zu machen, damit die Haushaltskasse ausgeglichen bleibt.
Finally, but perhaps the most obvious measure of them all, simply pay women more. Again, there’s a precedent. In 2016, the University of Essexgave all its women professors a one-off salary boost to wipe out a gender pay gap pay. Disciplinary differences, length of service and publication record were all ignored; as the university’s Vice Chancellor said:
‘This decision ensures we reward people in a fair way, based upon their contribution to our community, regardless of their personal characteristics.’
The beauty of this measure is clearly its simplicity. Got a vagina? Have £5000! These easy-to-follow steps will soon put an end to the gender pay gap. And women everywhere will be eternally grateful: who wouldn’t want to live in this brave new world?
So einfach ist es natürlich nicht, wenn man nicht ein TERF (Transexklusiv radical feminist) sein will, denn nicht jede Frau hat eine Vagina. Aber andererseits wäre es schön einfach. Jeder Frau einfach mehr Geld geben, damit sind dann alle Probleme erledigt.
Ganz einfache Schritte, ich hoffe auf eine schnelle Umsetzung
