Audi didn't "prove" the gender pay gap doesn't exist, they just said that they pay equally.

Fake news.
Errrr....watch the advert - in it they claim that women are paid less than men.

It depresses me to think of the struggles my daughters are going to face as they grow up, especially when confronted with things like this thread.
What struggles would they be? They'll only struggle if they succumb to the mindset that because they're of the female persuasion they can't do certain jobs.

A lot of women don't go into STEM because it's seen as a male-dominated area, but that's because women don't seem to like those subjects and choose less "technical" fields which tend to pay less.

If you want to be successful, then you have to make the right choices and not let others do it for you.
