There is, much as people don't seem to bother reading the studies confirming it. Yes, the "20%" figure or whatever it was that was being bandied about last election was misleading at best, a falsehood at worst, but a genuine wage gap still exists even after correcting for things like experience and hours worked.

Some people insist that feminism is about equality of the sexes, which explicitly means that it also involves advocating for men in areas where they are disadvantaged (criminal justice, education, suicide, etc.). Some insist it is a movement exclusively focused on women's rights. Some say it is a vehicle for female supremacy.

Which is why I always get a chuckle when someone starts ranting about "those damn feminists", because it's a meaningless word nowadays.

Yes those studies show that the men are working longer hours. This isn't 60 years ago where people purposely paid them less. If they worked the same longer hours they would make the same amount of money.

Also in that sense feminist is about equal rights for women such as being treated unfairly. True equal rights is egalitarian.
