There are various styles of communication (such as Direct and Indirect) and in various contexts (from highly technical, objective, to highly emotional, subjective) and with various focuses (mission oriented vs. exploratory brainstorming vs. goal-less sharing, etc.)
This idea that one group "seems" to be better than another seems rather vague and unsubstantiated, as does the basis for being paid more.
Being paid is a consequence of skills, value, productivity, sales & marketing, profitability efficiency, alongside supply and demand. If you're not marketing your skills (or don't have skills to market), that's no one's fault but yours-- no one owes you anything, regardless of 'communication abilities'.
- all_factz 6y agoSo sexism has nothing to do with the pay gap?
- twomoretime 6y agoThe pay gap is a myth. The original pay gap came from a trash paper which compared average pay of women and men across disciplines. So you had doctors and engineers grouped with nurses and daycare workers. That was the origin of ".75¢ on the dollar". Within most industries there is no paygap that cannot be explained by lack of negotiation and shorter work hours, among other factors. We also take it as a given that average performance of men and women on any task is identical, and that's nonsense. The paygap myth is pure propaganda. Edit: imagine my surprise when even CBS is admitting as much! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-gender-pay-gap-is-a-complete-myth/ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-gender-pay-gap-is-a-complet...
