The US Gender Wage Gap Uses Bogus Statistics + Feminism, Your Freudian Slip Is Showing + Bernanke Bubble - WB7

American Enterprise Institute: The gender wage gap came into focus this week, but not in the way the White House wanted. 
A reporter asked about AEI's study showing that Obama administration female staffers make only 88% of their male counterparts' salaries. Christina Hoff Sommers examines spokesman Jay Carney's response in this premiere episode of her video blog, "Factual Feminist."

Feminism, Your Freudian Slip Is Showing

Hannah Wallen: On April 2nd, Adèle Mercier, Associate Professor of the Queen's University Department of Philosophy, commented in reply to Alison Tieman's comment on a Queens University Paper letter to the editor. Alison had responded to the letter, in which the author argued that men's issues discussion shouldn't take place outside feminist oversight, with information and statistics that feminists ignore when choosing to demonize all men as potential rapists while denying female perpetration.

Adele's response specifically targeted Alison's discussion on sexual abuse against boys in juvenile facilities in the U.S., where a 2012 study found that 95% of them reported female perpetrators. Adele responded with exactly the same types of rape apology that feminists accuse the general public of using to excuse raping women and girls, quoting text from the study describing how adult staff at juvenile facilities engaged in sex with inmates as a REBUTTAL to the statement that the youth housed there were victimized.

Appalled at the way Adele, in her comment, had treated incarcerated youth as if they were able to give meaningful consent to staff in positions of authority over them, wrote about the discussion in A Voice For Men, and talked about it in a video on her channel.
