I came across this piece on Scott Adam's blog and found it quite interesting. Thought others here might find it interesting too:

So if you are wondering how men become cold-blooded killers, it isn't religion that is doing it. If you put me in that situation, I can say with confidence I would sign up for suicide bomb duty. And I'm not even a believer. Men like hugging better than they like killing. But if you take away my access to hugging, I will probably start killing, just to feel something. I'm designed that way. I'm a normal boy. And I make no apology for it.
Now consider the controversy over the Syrian immigrants. The photos show mostly men of fighting age. No one cares about adult men, so a 1% chance of a hidden terrorist in the group – who might someday kill women and children – is unacceptable. I have twice blogged on the idea of siphoning out the women and small kids from the Caliphate and leaving millions of innocent adult men to suffer and die. I don't recall anyone complaining about leaving millions of innocent adult males to horrible suffering. In this country, any solution to a problem that involves killing millions of adult men is automatically on the table.
If you kill infidels, you will be rewarded with virgins in heaven. But if you kill your own leaders today – the ones holding the leash on your balls – you can have access to women tomorrow. And tomorrow is sooner.

You didn't factor in risk. Every time someone runs at the mouth about how dangerous a cop's job is, someone else responds with a list of the most dangerous jobs. I've worked in some of those most dangerous jobs, throughout my life. I would counter the SJW's claims that I deserved more pay for driving a log truck out into the woods, than any male or female who sits in an air conditioned office with a coffee pot and vending machines only steps away from their desks.
While few women are found in those dangerous occupations, the women who are in those occupations seem to get the same pay as the men. Which supports one claim that Adams makes - when women are willing to take the same risks as men, they get equal pay.

Yup, see my response to Non Sequor above. I didn't take hardly any actual relevant variables into account, the same as feminists don't.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
