NCFM calls on Candidates to Stop Spewing Gender Pay Gap Myth
The National Coalition For Men (NCFM) calls on Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and all other candidates to be honest about the gender “pay gap.” Claiming that women “earn less” without explaining why is misleading and dishonest. The Department of Labor funded a study that showed the pay gap is mostly due to choices, not discrimination.
Before women get married and have kids, they earn the same as men, and are also beneficiaries of quality of life choices that favor health and longevity as reflected by statistics on industrial deaths. After having kids, women make additional quality of life choices different from males, such as more flexible hours and less managerial positions. Women have more options than men when it comes to being primary parents. In fact, over half of female graduates of Stanford and Harvard left the workforce within 15 years of entry into the workforce. This is not an option for most men. http://edition.cnn.com/2005/BUSINESS/03/15/optout.revolution/
Men are either primary breadwinners or on the streets. Consequently, they make the vast majority of homeless adults, job-related deaths, suicides, and incarcerated persons.
Women who were never married and are childless earn more than their male counterparts. And as corporate executives, women now earn more than men. http://www.reuters.com/article/2007/11/07/us-boardroom-women-idUSN0752118220071107?feedType=R
NCFM calls on the candidates of both parties to be honest and tell the whole truth about the gender pay gap as well as the many gender inequalities that men face in our society, not just in terms of homelessness, workplace deaths, and suicides but also systematic sex discrimination in child custody, criminal sentencing, public health policies, and more.

Thank you as I always suspected these facts, but have never had it written this way. As a 45yr old male veteran I have been in the thick of advancement of women in the workforce. I feel women have the same capabilities as men and deserve equal pay and opportunity, However the push for advancement of women has lead to an unfair advantage and less requirements or historical results needed. I have been discriminated against for promotions due to being male. This is now the reality in a driven world that believes women are getting the short end of the stick in the workplace. Which is simply not true
Yes, we are aware of numerous cases where promotions for well qualified and highly decorated males have been passed over for lesser qualified females, thanks in large part to Senator Gillibrand, NY, who is running for President on a feminist platform. In our view, she has seriously abused her oath of office and supported false accusers in the face of the truth. The truth being the destruction of innocently accused men, including those in the military.
If you are unhappy with the way the gender pay gap is publicised, take a look at the detail behind the well known “Global Gender Gap Index”. It is quite staggering that anyone takes it seriously. Women are “entitled” to live 6% longer than men. If medical science and/or lifestyle choices decrease the life expectancy gap to less than 6%, this index counts it as discrimination against women!!
Unbelievable, but true: http://ambividete.com/2015/05/24/the-global-gender-gap-index-an-example-of-orwellian-doublethink/
Lies of this magnitude should disqualify a candidate from running. Not by law of course, but by a societal moral standard.
Thank you.
Well put.
