Men that sleep with a lot of women = studs.  Women that sleep with a lot of guys = sluts. 

Men get paid more than women for the same job and usually are given more opportunity for advancement. 

We don't have periods.

We have women make our sandwiches.

I have no idea how people come to the "same job" argument. Plenty of men do the same job but get different pay. Does it take into consideration experience and seniority when these studies are made? 2 people can have the same role but the number of hours out in, experience, seniority and productivity could be different.

 

What about men who can't get laid vs. women who can't get laid? One is a loser (like a poster in this thread said) and the other is pure.

The analysis that most people quote with regards to the wage gap myth is from the Bureau of Labor statistics, which does not control for things like occupations, positions, education, job tenure, or hours worked per week.  In fact, the BLS analysis uses a baseline of 35 hours a week as a 'Full-Time' job, however, most of us are accustomed to working 40+ hours a week.  Which is why when actual economists look at the data, they come up with a much, much different interpretation of the data than the pseudo-scientists out there:
