What they don't want you to know about women's vs. men's economic contribution to society

The modern feminist movement has been pounding so loudly and so strongly about how women are being oppressed in so many ways in modern society, including economically, that most people just believe it. After all, repeat a lie enough times, and it becomes the accepted truth.

However, there are quite many things about women's economic contribution to society that they are completely unaware of, completely ignore, or outright deny, and don't want to talk about.

And mind you, these are not just the allegations of some random MGTOW misogynist sexist chauvinist pigs on some random internet forums. These are the findings of serious academic studies made in several countries, published in peer-reviewed journals.

Among other things:

- In most countries the average fiscal contribution to society by women in terms of tax money is negative, while for men it's positive. Women pay less income tax than men. In other words, tax revenue from men is higher than that from women, and the total amount of tax revenue from women is less than half of government expenditures (while for men it's over half of it).

- This ties closely to the fact that on average women tend to choose lower-paying jobs than men, and thus their total income is lower. (This choice is most often related to the type of job, but sometimes also to the choice of hours of work.)

- In welfare countries women on average use and receive more tax-paid welfare benefits than men. In other words, more tax money goes towards welfare benefits of women than of men. (This does not mean it's unjustified, especially since women tend to be the main caregivers of children. This is not meant to be a positive or a negative remark, just a statement of fact.)

- On average women live about 5 years longer than men, which in turn contributes negatively to their net fiscal contribution, and increases the amount of welfare benefits they receive.

- On average women spend, and overspend, more money than men. Women tend to go over their credit limit more often than men.
