    Ok. Let's just say that you're right for a second. Let's say that women are paid less than men for the exact same work, exact same hours, exact same experience, etc. Let's say that their employers get away with it. Now, let me ask you a question. If it's proven that you can pay a completely competent woman less than you would pay a completely competent man for the same work, then why do men have jobs at all? Why don't employers hire solely women? They would make a lot more money. You could say it's because of their own "misogyny", but let's be real. I doubt any sane person who cares anything about money would let their own minor biases get in the way of making money. In actuality, the pay gap largely disappears when you compare men and women working the exact same job with the same experience and the same qualifications. Not to mention no economist takes the "gender wage gap" seriously or sees it as an actually problem. But women tend to work less hours, take more days off, etc. Have you ever heard of Christiana Hoff Summers. She's an amazing feminist who makes awesome videos. She actually did a great video about the gender pay gap. I suggest you check it out.

    Thia book left me MIND BLOWN! A boy named August (Auggie) Pullman, was born with... let's say, a facial difference. He had been homeschooled his entire life, with all the surgeries he had to go through. Now, for the first time, he attends real live middle school, complete with bullies, (Julian) friends, (Summer and Jack) and so much more! Wonder tells the story of Via, (Oliva, Auggie's sister) Jack, Summer, and other characters. This book really is a Wonder- full experience for readers of all ages. Definitely a book you'll want to read.
