And things like Viagra and such are covered by insurance because they are actual medical problems. You know, problems with something that should not be a problem.

Eh, the majority of male erectile dysfunction is simply the result of aging. I think it's absolutely fantastic that modern medicine gave us a way around it because it no doubt improves men's quality of life, but it's something I'm sure to bring up every time someone argues against insurance-funded infertility treatments because infertility is the "natural" result of "women waiting too long".

And the wage gap? Meh. Plenty of information disproving it.

And there's plenty of information proving that it exists. So what?

So what?
So, the burden of proof is on people who say the wage gap exists to say that studies and explanations saying it doesn't are wrong.

Anon, the U.S. Census Bureau says the gender wage gap exists. Find a source that's just as legitimate and get back to us.

Also, here are all the scholarly articles Google found with the words 'gender wage gap.' You'll notice that at least the first twenty say it does exist, and the debate is mostly about how big it actually is.

Oh, of course it doesn't exist. I just make 20k less than the dudes on my team for no damn reason. My co-worker who was the person who had to found this team and train the guys makes 10k less than them, still. But it's pretty much every private company policy that you can be punished just for knowing that, so it's nothing you can actually bring up and most people don't actually know. Get real.

To be fair, Viagra and similar drugs help improve women's quality of life too. Plenty of horny older ladies out there. :)

And you're dead right about the fertility point, too. I'm going to start using that analogy.
