So, here's yet another very different view point.
Lately, i keep finding myself shutting out more and more world news. Frankly, its the same thing day after day and depending on your news source, it'll be depressing either way. corporate media is paid to speak the exact same lines over and over, independant media; while good for getting mostly authentic sources, becomes a bit of a drag when you realize nothing ever improves. Others are merely tabloid media.
When i think about alternative media, i think about the SJWs, feminists and all the reactionary parties involved in world that's just getting even murkier, stupider and more self conflictingly confusing. A bit early for my age to be telling anyone but really, once you've gone past a certain age, your world view should hopefully have been broad and open enough previously that you can feel and tease out what is naturally right and well with the world enough that you don't need to care what comes next. the so-called moral compass. actually, no. actually, i rather think a set of principles based on progress, critical thinking and a goodly amount of skepticism should help anyone last through the world in terms of mental sanity and health.
to touch on the matter of the modern day gender war as an example of the amount of inherent stupidity involved from all parties should give you guys an idea why it is important more than ever to think for yourselves and not just that, but be able to think, long hard and critically of the information given to you.
the famous wage gap myth or controversy can and must be looked at from all sides of the argument. i don't just mean from a man and woman's point of view. you're dealing with a company and its employees as well. so, depending on how biased your view is as well, i could well be spouting nonsense or gospel truth. but i'll put the matter to bed. the 77% percent does NOT work aboveboard for every nation and therefore every woman. it only works in america and even then, consider that the number might be skewed and that it is an amalgamation of the complete number of women doing work and the amount of work and also taking into consideration the types of work. how dare you take this number and blanket the whole spectrum of women in the workforce? that not only skews the numbers but makes light of the actual work that some women are doing.
a scientist is more often than not, going to be paid more than a primary school teacher. a chemist will definitely get less money than a CEO. what was not taken into any consideration were the number of women at the workplace. perhaps 50 years ago, there were definitely less women in the workforce but compare that to now and i more often than not find myself in situations where there are more women and who will make more money than me. figures point back to jobs that women naturally gravitate towards like teaching and nursing. there are less women doing science because there are more women interested in either becoming business people or god forbid, do gender studies. fact of the matter i believe is that in the animation industry there will be times when there are more women than men. there is an entire studio in japan staffed only by women. how progressive is that when you consider how positively backwards the japanese are in terms of the feminist ideal of "gender-equality".
alright, with that in mind, let us look at a general office work environ. you have a male and female office slave. both are 20 years old, both have a starting salary of RM 2k, both have cars, both must work 8 hours a day. so, assuming they work like robots for the next 5 years, they will both make RM 120,000 at the end of their 5 years. Assuming the boss is unbiased, both will be promoted. Now, here is the interesting bit. As a woman, if female wage slave becomes pregnant, she will be entitled to maternity leave, which means that she will still get paid despite not being at work. as for the man on the other hand, paternity leave is considered "a new thing" and therefore, will have to take normal or even unpaid leave. additionally, the female wage slave already works less if she gets maternity leave, which can be up to 8 weeks long or 2 months of no productivity. we can go further in fact. If the female wage slave then decides to leave the company, she is therefore then exiting the workforce. So, all this will contribute to your 77% of a man's pay. this then, is what the feminists generally are not telling you.
they will then use this misinformation to twist the arms of people, governments and surprisingly even companies. the best bit will still be their claim to be for the equal treatment of men and women. how do you intend to treat men and women the same, when a man's female working partner can get paid while she's pregnant and if the man goes to see his newborn son in the same token, he must take unpaid leave? On top of that, not only do the feminists then want their maternity leave, but they are demanding for more salary for even less productivity. yes, then in this sense, having a penis and testicles is definitely the disadvantage and scourge that the feminists claim.
neatly however, this brings me back on point. its galling to see the world's mentality as it is now; no better than when it was a hundred years ago. the primary difference is that the victims' do get to abuse their position and in turn bully not just their oppressors but everyone else as well.
this being said though, if i ever have to give a lecture at a college and some kid who thinks he or she is being bright, asks me of my opinion on the war in so and so or should a man be able to give birth to a baby, so as to get maternity leave, i will very frankly state: "i don't give a damn, i'm here to show you art techniques and how to enjoy yourselves while doing art and animation. i could care less if the next president of singapore is a genuine komodo dragon. the real world is a distraction from the things you enjoy, so buckle down and do your own thing rather than worry about things you have little to no control over."
keep an open mind on things but remember to question and think for yourself first. step into the world boldy but always remember to be home for dinner. your mental sanity will thank you for it.
