These retards are a joke.  Who gives a shit if some 'poor women' who are earning a fortune aren't earning enough of a fortune. Just bring all the men's salaries down to theirs.

I’m sure the men would love that, and wouldn’t be resentful of the women at all.

I have a theory that the very term "gender pay gap" is really a massive sexual euphemism.

Correct.

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Sources for whatever definitions you are working off please. And "Scrap's butt" is, of course, a valid source.

I'm lazy so I used Wikipedia as a source. There are two types of pay gap: an adjusted pay gap and an unadjusted pay gap:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_pay_gap

"Total Earnings Gap" is a thing. If that is what you are referring to, can you explain why it is relevant in the case of BBC?

I'd love to know, too.

I have to say, this turned out to be unexpectedly hilarious. The second thread in a row. Thanks, Benji. You should post more.

I never said it was ritualistic or Satanic. Just that the BBC covered it up when some of their staff fiddled some kids.  :M

While I agree that it is difficult to muster a great deal of sympathy for a woman on big money making less money than a man on even bigger money, the real issue is that people shouldn't be paid less because they have boobs. Or because they don't have a penis. Whether they're reading the news or flipping burgers.

True, but does it mean that you should only address one problem at a time?

No, but my point was I was surprised that others were surprised at the BBC doing something morally questionable. With blatant misleading political bias akin to Fox News and a long history of protecting kiddie-fiddlers why is anybody actually shocked about the pay gap? It's tame in comparison to some of the other shit they've done.  :dunno:

Oh and let's not forget making Cliff Richard's life a living hell during a police investigation into potential kiddie-fiddlers they protected for decades!

I can't say I'm shocked by that pay gap. It's not like it's unheard of.
