Just want to understand the world better and help others do the same.

Statistical evidence more or less, something that is objective.

Well what I mean by it is its dictionary definition, which is a "story" or personal account of a situation.

In real face to face conversations, adults respond much better my way. But I we we're going to have to agree to disagree.

Yeah and I can show statistics where women make more than men in the same jobs if they are both single in the same city. It's all about 1/

What? You asked in that comment why do people just say "I've seen" to deny. And I haven't given any prior anecdotal evidence. Keep up.

You're right there are degrees to it, but a random killing of someone in public is about as absolute as a social norm can get. I'm 1/

No because thats just about what you think. The social implies a group of people share this belief as a common norm. So if I go and talk 1/

As we've already gone over, there are factors which need to be studied further. Once that is in then we'll have the definitive answer.

Yes I know and more research is being done. If you are implying that the wage gap is some kind of malevolent ploy against women, I doubt it.

There are a few studies showing men are more likely to ask for a raise, and a much higher one than women. Could make up for remaining gap.

Was about to say this. It's like some people just read the title of studies and claim they have the facts.
