It's... inspiring.

Well society is slowly becoming a matriachy, at least in the usa. The reason is simple, if it's legal to pay women less money with minimum wage then of course companies are going to try and be cheap and hire more and more women.

Irony: When a idiot government makes it legal to pay women less causes companies to hire women more resulting in more power for women.

I'm not sure I follow your line of thought here... How exactly is the US turning into a matriarchy ?

It's not. It's slowly but surely on its way to de facto equality rather than merely de jure equality, but women aren't really favored in the workplace.

Although, as many can attest, at least around here, there are workplaces that, in their attempts to keep their workforce "diverse", will be less likely to hire Caucasians or males than they will minorities or females, even if an applicant in the former categories is a fair degree more qualified.

As tempting as it is to say "White males have had it made since this country was founded. You're complaining now because you aren't favored?", we have to keep things in perspective--the current generation of white people never enslaved anyone. The current generation of black people was never enslaved. Punishment or favoritism in response to crimes or injustices of one's ancestors is bad. and wrong. and bad.

It depends on which workforce you are talking about. Most skilled jobs it is going towards a de facto equality like you said, but unskilled jobs and companies that are cheap tend to give hiring preference towards woman to save money. Companies like walmart hire the elderly, the working poor, minorities, people without higher education, and women not cause they support equality or bettering living standards, but cause they're cheap and want to save money. If you are poor, a minority, didn't go to college, and a woman yes they will hire you like no tomorrow cause they want to hire cheap labor and never have to raise your pay. Also yes this is true about walmart, I have worked for walmart and who they consider to hire is extremely fucked up. If that isn't a kick in the groin for people that support equal pay you should hear their views on the handicap. If you are handicapped applying for walmart sweet lord do you get jumped to the top of the list cause in many states it's legal to pay you less than minimum wage.

Walmart isn't as bad when it came to this as they used to be fortunately cause most people aren't scumbags, but there are plenty of walmart managers still who go, "Wait?! We have a poor minority woman who didn't go to college and has a handicap that doesn't interfere physically with the amount of work they can do?! HIRE THEM SO WE NEVER HAVE TO PAY THEM MORE THAN MINIMUM WAGE!", and yes I did run into a manager like this and he was a total scumbag that made the other managers want to punch his face in the face for being such a scumbag to other people.

Walmart has been cutting down on assholes like these doing the hiring process, cause they're a equal oppurtunity employers, but unfortunately there are still sleezeballs like those in the world.
