@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode That has nothing to do with hours worked once hired or hours worked at home, but rather whether one would get a job in Madrid or Barcelona and only 18 occupations were tested. The results are not demonstrably representative of Spain, let alone America (upf.edu/en/recercaupf/…).
@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode@movemeon@BLS_gov@pewresearch According to the @BLS_gov, "[o]n the days they worked, employed men worked 49 minutes more than employed women. … However, even among full-time workers (those usually working 35 hours or more per week), men worked more per day than women—8.4 hours, compared with 7.9 hours."
@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode@movemeon@BLS_gov@pewresearch American Time Use Survey (with 2017 as an example) shows that women on average are not spending enough more time with their kids, doing chores, or anything else to explain women's lack of time working.
On average, men just work more in America (considering both paid and unpaid).
Women care for and help household members 2.08 more hours per day than men in the most extreme case presented by Table 8A, but men work 6.43 hours more per day than women.
@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode@movemeon@BLS_gov@pewresearch Similarly, comparing the men from Table 8B to the women from Table 8C (where the youngest child is under 6), women do household activities for 1.91 more hours per day than men in the most extreme case presented by Table 8A, but, again, men work 6.43 hours more per day than women.
@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode@movemeon@BLS_gov@pewresearch By comparing the men from Table 8B to the women from Table 8C (using the youngest child under 6 column), we see the situation where women are unemployed and spending the most time caring not only for the children but the whole family.
@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode@movemeon@BLS_gov@pewresearch Maybe women are forced to stay home with their kids and that causes the gap. If true, women with no kids should be working the same amount as men in the workforce as there is no reason not to since there is no reason to be on call and no extra household or childcare duties.
@snoopingass@OrwellNGoode@movemeon@BLS_gov@pewresearch Whether you consider all currently childless folks (Table 8A) or just the ones working (Table 8B), women spend less time on paid labor and related activities and women spend less time working considering both unpaid domestic labor and paid labor added together. The pattern holds.
@LexyTopping writes "[m]en should work less and their employers and the government should help them to do so in order to close the gender pay gap" (theguardian.com/world/2018/may…).

The Boy Scouts of America (@boyscouts) “today announced that it will rebrand to Scouting America, reflecting the organization’s ongoing commitment to welcome every youth and family in America to experience the benefits of Scouting” (), which makes sense.
While this is not the invasion of male spaces some make it out to be, this is (in an amusing way) feminists indirectly delivering a massive gut punch, if not coup-de-grâce, to the Girl Scouts of the United States America organization (@girlscouts).
Both Cub Scouts and Scouts are sex segregated.
“Family packs have both boy and girl dens that meet separately” (, p. 8).
