    You said that people should be paid what they’re worth and then said people with “a vag” or different skin color shouldn’t get more money because of that. It’s well-known that women and minorities get paid significantly less than their white male peers on average.

    So, logically, your implication is that women and minorities are paid less because they’re worth less. I’m asking you to explain why you believe that. It’s not that complicated.

      Maybe they’re paid less because they aren’t as good. If you owned a business and you had to choose between a black woman who isn’t qualified or a white man who is more qualified, what would you do?

      I’m completely unbiased in this topic. All I’m saying is that the most qualified person should get the higher paying jobs. That’s how I would run my business. If it just so happens to be a trans black lesbian, then so be it.

        women and minorities who are equally (or sometimes more) qualified regularly get paid less on average than their white male peers. you claim to be unbiased, yet this information is neither new, nor it is uncommon knowledge. still, you continue imply that these people are paid less because they are worth less.

        I am, once again, asking you to explain why you believe that’s the case.

          I’m not sure what else to say. I don’t look at race and genitals as a qualifying factor in pay.
