Anyone who’s ever done a group project at school or worked in a team environment would be grimly familiar with the types of skiver who consistently refuse to pull their weight, sits on their clacker or is just plain useless; yet expects to lap up the rewards of everyone else’s hard work. Feminism has raised a generation of such skiving girls who, despite sitting at the apex of society, throw a tanty because a handful of boys are paid even more than they are. These feminine sloths generate a fraction of the revenue for their employers that the boys do, yet they expect to be rewarded with a ludicrously outsized slice of the pie.

In fact, these grasping viragos are already being remunerated at a far higher rate than their male peers. Yet still these greedy bums scream blue murder.

News today that France earned $38 million from FIFA for winning soccer’s World Cup in Russia, while the women’s champion in France this summer will earn just $4 million, has prompted outrage.

The total prize money for the Women’s World Cup in France this July will be $30 million compared with total prize money of $440 million for the men’s teams at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Cue the screaming tanties from the spoiled girls.

“The difference between the men’s and women’s prize money is ridiculous,” Tatjana Haenni, who oversaw women’s soccer for FIFA before stepping down in 2017, said, according to the Associated Press. “It’s really disappointing the gap between the men’s and women’s World Cups got bigger. It sends the wrong message.”

It’s notable that this is very much an elite problem. A woman who earns millions for playing sport is already earning incomes that even most men could only dream of, yet they whine and stamp their feet because men who are also at the pinnacle of the income pyramid earn even more eye-watering amounts than they do. Even the loudest complainers about the so-called “gender pay-gap” in “everyday” life are business and media elites.

But the real scandal is that these carping fishwives are actually earning more, hour-per-hour, bums-on-seats, than the men. But, with boundless greed and arrogance, they want even more.

When viewed appropriately—based on how much money they generate—women actually make more than men.

Let’s look at some of the industries characterised by the loudest feminine shriekers and shirkers.

To be sure, the highest-grossing movie – in adjusted terms – of all time is Gone With The Wind, in which women stars are prominent – but Clarke Gable was almost certainly as big a draw-card as any. Movies are a team effort. In fact, the top ten movies are all either gender-balanced or distinctly masculine affairs like The Ten Commandments or Jaws. Probably the only exception is the mostly female-lead The Sound of Music.

The ten highest-grossing movie directors are all male. In fact, the highest-grossing female-directed movie, Wonder Woman, doesn’t get anywhere near the top 100.

The highest-selling female music artist, Madonna comes in fourth place, earning just over half the revenue of the top-selling artists, the Beatles or Elvis. In terms of concert tours, Madonna sits way down in 8th place, and pulled half the audience as the top-grossing U2.

The Women’s World Cup brought in almost $73 million, of which the players got 13%. The 2010 men’s World Cup in South Africa made almost $4 billion, of which 9% went to the players.

The men still pull the World Cup money wagon. The men’s World Cup in Russia generated over $6 billion in revenue, with the participating teams sharing $400 million, less than 7% of revenue. Meanwhile, the Women’s World Cup is expected to earn $131 million for the full four-year cycle 2019-22 and dole out $30 million to the participating teams.

In the everyday world that most of us live in, differences between male and female earnings are caused by the differences in working hours and the days worked. The simple fact is that it is illegal to pay men and women different rates for the same job. But in the “very special” world of the feminist elite where the minority of women who identify as “feminists” are overwhelmingly drawn from the university-educated middle-class – there is indeed a very real disparity. Female slackers are paid more, for every revenue dollar they bring in and every bum they put on a seat, than the men.

And still they scream for more.
