UK: Number of women making unfair pay claims reaches record levels

Story here. Excerpt:

'The number of women taking employers to court claiming unfair pay has risen to record levels.
...
Jenny Watson, chair of the Equal Opportunities Commission, said that this flood of pay claims was pushing the tribunal system to breaking point.

She said the surge of cases was due to women being recruited by no-win no-fee lawyers promising to win pay rises and backdated cash.

She warned that these lawyers may now target women working in the private sector, which is just as vulnerable to legal action.'

Is it just me, or does it seem like every_fucking_time, feminists are able to distort an issue like this, so that it appears the victims are the women? It sounds to me like the companies are the victims here, and the women and lawyers are the actual perpetrators. (Oh yeah I forgot, when a lawyer "covinces" a woman to sue for wages, she is not interested at all in getting some hard cash..instead, she is doing it for the moral principle involved, and the lawyer has taken advantage of her high standard of integrity).

Ax is right. Surely it is the women recruiting the lawyes, not the lawyers recruiting the women?

The feminist-dominated Equal Opportunities Commission can't afford to admit this.

As you are already well aware, and as ax already said, the only question to ask yourself when women commit crimes, whine about something or otherwise behave badly is "which man will they blame this time"? The automatic assumption is that lawyers = men. Men = bad. Therefore lawyers must be "preying" on women. It couldn't possibly be greedy, gold-digging women hiring lawyers (on contingency no less), because we all know that every woman is a veritable saint and a tower of virtue. (Sorry, I just threw up in my mouth a little).

We're in the worst of all worlds today: women have the all the rights men used to enjoy and then some, the minimal level of responsibility women have always enjoyed (i.e. nearly none), plus all of the rights women have always enjoyed, plus all of their newfound "choices" about everything under the sun. Something's gotta give. Either they accept some responsibilities, or give up some privileges, it's as simple as that. Men like us are sick and tired of being second-class citizens with no rights or choices and all the responsibilities, not to mention being the butt of every joke and the recipient of all blame for anything and everything any woman can think of to whine about. Most importantly, we're sick to death of being defined by women and for women.

As for this erroneously named "Equal Opportunities Commission", it's about neither equality nor opportunity. I suppose they might be a Commission, though. If they were truly about equality or opportunity, they'd consider that self-employed women only earn 49% of what self-employed men do, and THAT, my friends, is the only accurate indicator of the average "worth" of men and women in the workplace. Therefore, even if women were earning 76% of what men do (the actual figure is 103%), this Commission would instantly find that it is in fact MEN who are being underpaid for their labour, by between 30 and 50%.

Lawyers are not a particularly high form of life and are pure money gathering machines that are completely incapable of perusing any thought except for "how do I get money out of this?"

Lawyers and cockroaches would be the only living things left on Earth after a total Nuclear War.

According to "SOME so-called MRAs" you're just "oversimplifying." According to those goons women are just a little "further" ahead in "certain" privileges they have. Men still have rights women are just a little bit ahead of them. Never mind how everything is spun as woman good, man bad and how women receive preferential treatment in the so-called "justice system" and everywhere else.

You're just "overreacting"; So get your facts straight RM and start making up excuses for women -- while minimizing Legalized Misandry -- like the rest of the chivalrous buffoons.

LoL! Welcome back bro!
