Re: US. Misogynistic or not?

Brian,  you clearly would not understand the point if it hit you the face. 
Who gets paid more?  Well on a whole men.  But it has nothing to do with 
misogyny.

Many women do not compete at the same level as men in the workforce.  They

will not relocate for their jobs.  They leave work early to take care of
the 
kids.  They take leaves of absence when their children are born.  This is 
the biggest cause for a disparity in salary.  Generally, if a woman is 
dedicated to her job, she will do as better or better than most men.

You are an idiot.
