Message: <blockquote data-quote="Frank Underwood" data-source="post: 445647" data-attributes="member: 35">"Easier" is a relative term.  I worked call center jobs, and while it wasn't exactly ditch digging, it could be mentally taxing at times.  And yet the corporations I worked for felt it was only worth minimum wage.  Many jobs are valued lesser than they should be based on the perceived degree of difficulty.  It doesn't mean they should be valued less, but then we've already established that.  If women are more likely to choose those types of jobs than men, it doesn't necessarily mean they're valued less because of their gender.  Because when men enter those same professions, the value of the job usually doesn't go up.</blockquote>
