Gov officials are asked about their own statistics showing a gender pay gap in Australia.
They end up being forced to admit that the entire gap could be explained with the fact that women work less hours than men.
Absolutely brutal takedown.

Those chicks are lying dirtbags.
It does look like they were trying to slip by a shoddy analysis. I’d be guessing they did look at some hourly rates and found out it didn’t support their pay gap foregone conclusion so they omitted the data.
The lamest excuse she gave: just because somebody sits at a desk for 12 hours doesn’t mean they are working 12 hours…
If companies could get the same productivity from a woman working 8 hours that they’d have to pay a man for working 12 hours then nobody would hire men. The company would lower their costs by 33% by only hiring women, and pocket the difference.
If you could could slash the personnel costs by 33% and get the same work done, shareholders would demand all-women workforce. And in a way they do and that’s why most of the shit we buy is made in Asia.
It’s all women in the room except for that guy asking questions… So they haven’t looked at the hourly rate of pay in that study?? What a clown show.
Never forget that women had to be shoe-horned into the workplace by legislative fiat in the first place.
Its time Adam shrugged.
I’ve always thought this “women get paid less than men” assertion was ridiculous anyway. Even setting aside for a moment the maternity leave thing or the physical strength thing…if a job pays an hourly rate, the law says both men and women *must* be paid the same. If it’s a salaried job, you negotiate that salary so that both employer and employee are satisfied; if women are willing to negotiate for lower salaries than men, whose fault is that, really?
Much ado about nothing. There are plenty of women who have climbed the corporate ladder already and plenty of men working under those women.
Perhaps we should once again shoe-horn women into the workplace by legislative fiat, except this time, into jobs like resource extraction, super-tanker crews, sewer maintenance, iron foundries and bricklayers…
When as many women die at work as men do, they can complain, until then, they should be slapped in the mouth.
Some women make damn good money laying on their backs. Some of those are wives, and the rest are Ho’s of different stripe!
What’s next? Work 1 hour a week and get the same pay as a full time employee?
That would be UBI Joe
So .. therefore….women are working harder for the less time they’re working and even if they’re getting the same rate, they’re still being paid less.
A witch…may we burn her??
That didn’t seem brutal to me.
I beg to differ, that clueless look on her face when she realizes she has no argument. Then makes the ludicrous claim that just because men are there longer doesn’t mean more get’s done. A complete cop out.
They are flat out lying and they got outed.
Womansplaining
Yes, but what could be more mansplaining than a bald middle-aged white man telling literally a whole room full of women that their data analysis is wrong. Of course, what is more female than for her to then claim that even if the man worked more, he didn’t work as hard.
Wanna bet the butch woman respondent makes more $$$ … in annual salary … than every other person in the room?
I’d love to see someone do a little discovery of the salaries of these grievance matrons before the Hearing … and then expose THEM for the LIARS they are.

Math is hard-Barbie
Sure.. Global warming is real and man made.. and don’t forget to get your booster shot :)..
In what world do two sets of books exist based on gender?.. If WOMEN really got paid less then nobody would hire men… Because after all the ladies are rather clever if it doesn’t involve picking up scht or taking out the garbage..
Just another DUMB political movement that nobody has the balls to put in its place.. Until now?..
I was waiting for him to ask how much their taxpayer’s money was spent on this bogus study and when the Treasury could expect a refund.
When your pay check depends on NOT SEEING..you too can be a government Notsee.
Without the “Gender gap” these overpaid gas bags got nothing.
No reason to be sponging off of the tax payers hard work.
Fire 50% on day 1
A further 50% every month thereafter.
Film their faces as they are fired..
Useless destructive parasites.
A TAX on all do-gooders,would go a long way to preserving civil society.
Didn’t collect the actual hours worked and wages paid?
Statistics by women.
The flip side of the wage gap is the gender occupational death gap, which is >90%. That is, women die in a job eleven times more rarely than men.
The biggest wage gap factor is that despite women work less hours in paid jobs, they have to cope a longer life with that wage.
How unfair is that.
