Ave, nagging does not=negotiating higher pay with the person who is actually AUTHORIZED to give you higher pay. Feminists want to latch themselfs onto whoever makes the most money and force the employer through the goverment to pay that rate to everyone. Sikipping trying to explain you what happens if every american becomes a billionaire there is a difference between neogtiation and nagging to somone who in turn forces somebody to do something.

Rio feminists would reread the question SOELY based on negotiation.

When people say women get paid less or dont get the raises they deserve, either they dont have an example in recent news, or they look at maybe a couple of companies. In my work, i havnt gotten a single pay raise in a couple years, even though im on an equal level with some of the girls who are coworkers, and they have gotten almost an annual pay increase. It all depends on where you work, and sometimes the guy just IS the better choice for the raise because of some other trait other than intelligence.

This question is a little ambiguous and convoluted but as a general rule we should remember that there is only so much money in a pot so when one person gets paid more another person will one way or another be paid less.

Where there is a trades union a standard rate will usually be negotiated and this rate will apply to everyone in that job. This is the norm with blue-collar jobs and sometimes even with clean-collar jobs.

Where there is no standard rate, a wage or salary is by individual negotiation between employer and employee (or master and servant to use the traditional nomenclature). In practice this depends upon qualification for the job and/or how physically attractive you are to the interviewer; so when the interviewer is a man and the interviewee is a good-looking woman, the woman has an unfair advantage.

Who would ever come up with an idea like that? As long as somebody gets those raises because they genuinely deserve them, salary negotiation is a perfectly plausible variable.

Women are entitled to equal pay for equal work regardless of "negotiating skills." Education and experience can be attributed to women too. Women are equally as qualified and deserving as men as far as equitable remuneration, but they still only receive about 70 percent of what they are truly worth.
And no one said anything about if the man had higher education, blah blah blah. What puerile drivel to try to justify the inequality for women in the professional world.
And when a MAN asks for more money he is admired for his courage and ability to "negotiate" when a WOMAN asks for more money she is seen as a NAG.
Get the disparity or is it too much information coming in all at once?

You do have a point. If a man asked his boss more times than the woman for a raise I guess he could give him a raise and not her. But if the man asked for a raise and the woman asked for a raise and the experience and effectiveness of their work was the same and he only granted the man's request there may be a problem.

So you're saying that women should either put up or shut up when it comes to getting paid better?

Uhhhmmm... YEAH. That's, like, kind of the whole point.

But are you just going to turn around and tell us that we're nagging when we do it, or are you going to admire us for our assertiveness in demanding better pay? Ball's in YOUR court on that one, champ.

I do think he should be paid more. If he is working harder at his job, and trying to advance, why shouldn't he be paid for the job he does?
