Google's annual pay equity review finds its men underpaid compared to women

Article here. Excerpt:

'Google’s 2018 “pay equity analysis” published Monday compares the salaries of its employees and found that men were underpaid in relation to women last year.

“Compensation should be based on what you do, not who you are,” the study begins, but the New York Times highlighted the fact that the study explains how Google provided $9.7 million in “adjustments” to 10,677 employees. Men account for roughly 69 percent of the employees at the tech giant, but the number of men who make up the 10,677 total is unclear.

The study admits that lower-level software engineer “men were flagged for adjustments because they received less discretionary funds,” or funds that are not designated for a specific purpose and can be used later, “than women.”

The 2018 analysis also includes a “new hire analysis” to mark discrepancies in offers to recently hired, which accounted for 49 percent of the total $9.7 million adjustment amount.'

... about "pay equity" when lo and behold, it is discovered men are getting underpaid based on whatever standards are at play, not women. They immediately cry foul, demand to know the details, want to do "their own analysis".

Kind of like how the Dems are reacting to that report on Trump even b4 it gets released. They've heard it has nothing in it of political value so they are already saying they want to get access to all the source material, subpoena the people Mueller interviewed, etc.

I love watching feminists/liberals lose their shit when Reality hands them their ass.

... unrelated but just too good not to post. Not directly MRM either except in that by "family" the author clearly refers to intact families, ie, ones with a dad/husband in them.

Being child-free and single, yet white and male, does the author also target me? Not apparently because she never mentions anyone but "white families" (implicitly intact ones), leaving out white male single child-free homeowners like myself. But you know, I suspect if pressed, she'd toss me in there as well.

Her solution is obvious: either white families stop buying homes or start defaulting on loans to make everyone else look better, or stop reproducing. End white reproduction. At least end intact white families. Outlaw marriage/cohabitation among whites. Prohibit single white men from owning homes, too. Women also. Basically, ban whites from owning homes.

This is from the Demo-feminist harbinger rag of all time, too. If you read it in the HuffPo, it's as good as reading it on the NOW or DNC web sites.

'I've witnessed the way white people pass on their housing wealth up close. Around the same time that I first moved to New York City and discovered that I couldn’t actually afford to pay my rent on an assistant professor’s salary, a colleague of mine ― a white woman like myself ― bought an entire brownstone in Brooklyn. She made the same crappy salary I did, but she was different from me in two ways. She’d had the good sense to have middle-class parents who died properly, with insurance benefits and home equity. And she’d married a higher-earning white man. She and her husband went on to have a couple of children and will, I expect, pass the equity in their single-family-dwelling brownstone on to them. My former colleague and her husband are good people and progressive liberals. And they are contributing to the racial wealth gap.

Of course, the American dream that’s been sold to us is one of home ownership and of people being able to provide for their families. But taking care of people we love can’t be an excuse to actively disadvantage other people’s children. White parents who want the best for their kids must find a way to give it to them without pulling up the ladder behind them. To point this out is not to call all white people with kids bad parents; it is to remind them that any action on behalf of one’s own family has consequences beyond it.

Consider the issue of school segregation, a classic case of white families ― especially white mothers ― hoarding resources for their children at the expense of their non-white peers. Reporter Nikole Hannah Jones has documented white parents’ efforts to fight the desegregation of public schools, a fight that recalls the black-and-white photographs of the 1960s and the busing riots of the 1970s, but that persists today, even in self-proclaimed liberal communities.'

Tbh it sounds to me like a feminist single child-free woman is green with envy that her colleague who calls herself a feminist found a moneyed idiot to buy her into a much more comfy deal and gave her the kids she wants. Nothing like financial and reproductive envy between females to bring the claws out. Bet if the author had her own useful idiot with money to finance her she'd be singing a different song.

Remarkable to me the number of supposedly liberated feminist independent women who latch onto straight white men with money and ride that train to glory all while decrying the white patriarchy. Guess what dear, if there is a white patriarchy, you're not only sucking and fucking it, you also reproduced with it.

The hypocrisy of liberal white feminist females who are married to well-off white men is simply astounding. Want to really piss them off? Point all this out to them!

No amount of feminism can undo eons of evolution that instilled female primate hypergamy into humans. Am I saying, yeah, they hoes? Yep. But I don't blame them. They're just slaves to their hard-wiring, like men. See a nice pair of tits? Yeah, we'll watch them bounce by. No amt. of wokeness gonna change that.

I just love to watch nasty white middle- and upper-middle class white women shit their pants when confronted with reality.

This kind of thing is so pervasive among this category of woman (white middle class or higher with pseudo-feminist 2x-standards) that I have stopped bothering even talking to them unless I have to. I fuck Latinas, black women, and the occasional Asian chick. They don't have these problems, they're great fucks, no bullshit, and they love white guys. Dunno why, they just do. I don't miss white girls one bit.

... or hell will freeze over before this gets any significant coverage in the media, which will instead only echo the usual sound byte of "70 cents." Would feminists actually be pleased if all their hyped "oppression" proved groundless? I don't think so. They would just invent new forms of oppression out of thin air, so great is their need to wallow in self-pity.

. . . with an increasing portion of white women today is that they have it extremely well in life on average, yet moan and lecture condescendingly to others about how they are so oppressed, all the while leeching off their supposed enemy (as Matt pointed out).

Well, a kingdom cannot stand divided against itself. White women, please either pick a side or shut up! If you pick team Sisterhood, then you have to relinquish all of the goodies white men get you. If you're not willing to do that, then stop b***ing about the source of your goodies! Simple as that.

It really gets tiresome. Like listening to a spoiled child who is upset that Daddy did not buy them the right color of Corvette for their sweet 16.
