There is a Wage Gap Between Men and Women in the Workforce

“IThe demagraphics are a huge impact on this debate. There are many issues where the female is stuck with the child while the male can leave the relationship. This is one of the key issues that impact the debate as we can see that the status of the individual and the amount of dependents they have can make a serious impact on the issue. THe amount of hinderance that is placed on the female is shown that they are forced to workless and they are forced to shell out more and more money to harm their own financial abilities which already hinders their ability to work as this harms the ability of the mother to continue to work. “ Rebuttal: 1 First off, in order to understand what Con is saying, we must correct his spelling errors. *The *Demographics *Hindrance My opponent claims that women are often times stuck in a relationship, whilst a man can just leave, therefore leaving the child with the mother. But, my opponent provides no proof for this claim, therefore making this argument irrelevant, and mute. He also doesn’t tell us how this affects a woman working wise, or why this has a negative impact on the woman. My opponent also claims that this forces women to work less, but is this accurate? Surely, there is such a thing called daycare, or family to watch your children, while you’re at work. My opponent has made a painless argument, because he has provided no proof, what so ever for his arguments, he just assumes that we should believe him. Rebuttal #2 “My opponent had advocated for a massive gap that men made more than women en mass, thus my opponent has limitted herself to arguing it one way, thus a pay gap could be shown, but it would have to be men making more than women. If I show it can exist yet the other way around, I win the debate. ” This is false. We had agreed upon the definition of “Wage Gap- “] Wage Gap: The gender pay gap (also known as gender wage gap, male–female income difference, gender gap in earnings, gender earnings gap, gender income difference) is the difference between male and female earnings” In round 1, I had simply argued that there is a gap between female, and male income. This is not limited (by the definition) to men. The fact that I have simply shown women are generally paid less, than men, I simply win. Then, I had argued, with facts, unlike you, that men make more than women. Rebuttal #3 “Top jobs were women make more than the male in the field. ” 1. Social worker - $1.08 2. Merchandiser - $1.08 3. Research assistant - $1.07 4. Purchasing specialist - $1.06 5. Physician advisor - $1.02 6. Communications associate - $1.02 7. Social media - $1.02 8. Health educator - $1.01 9. Procurement - $1.01 10. Business coordinators and therapists - $1.01 My opponent doesn’t provide a source for this, so he could be making this up, which wouldn’t matter anyways, because this argument is useless. For 1. Is this list counting in women who work part time as well? In my previous arguments, I had shown the annual salary of a full time social worker, compared to a full time engineer that is a man. The man, with no doubt, made more. For 2. Since there is no source, there is no way to find out what year this is from, no if it came from a bias source. Conclusion: I don’t even need to make any more rebuttals, because it’s pretty clear on who has won this debate. All I had to do, by the definition given, is show, and prove, that one gender (female) makes less than men do, regardless of education background. I have given, and proven many reasons why women chose to work less, compared to men.
