It’s true, women do make less money than men.
But it’s their fault because they choose the lower-paying jobs. Men, for example, choose the higher-paying jobs like doctor or lawyer, whereas women choose the lower-paying jobs like women doctor and women lawyer.
Okay, listen up, you big dummy. Explain bear is here to break it down. The joke starts by saying something that's generally true: women often make less money than men. Then it gives a reason you sometimes hear: women choose lower-paying jobs. Seems legit, right? BUT THEN, the punchline is the twist! It says men choose 'doctor' or 'lawyer' (high-paying), but women choose 'women doctor' or 'women lawyer' (low-paying). Get it? It's stupid! A doctor is a doctor, a lawyer is a lawyer! Adding 'women' in front doesn't make it a different, worse-paying job. The joke is making fun of the idea that it's *just* about job choice, by using a ridiculous example that highlights how even in the same job, there can be differences, or how the *reasoning* sometimes used to explain the pay gap is silly. You probably thought 'women doctor' was a real job. Based! Now go eat a berry.
