Caroline Dinenage - Another Fact Twisting Misandrist

Caroline Dinenage has smirked at male issues for a long time and appears to be in love with herself and her gender. She once said (with a trademark smirk) that some women believed international men's day was every day. How so? Ignorance of male health issues? Glass cellar job fatalities? Parenting rights? Lack of support for male victims of domestic violence? The male suicide rate? Male genital mutilation in this country?

This Government is full of misandrists - and care minister Caroline Dinenage is just another of those. While many of us know that the whole of society is garnered towards 'SHE', Dinenage denigrates the work of dedicated male doctors, who work longer hours, and says, of course this is all down to 'inequality'. Sadly, Ms Dinenage, choosing motherhood is a lifestyle choice and caring responsibilities are not the preserve of women only.

We cannot have doctors beggaring about and not being available, not being able to commit to study, etc. We need our doctors to be AVAILABLE and we need a value for money health service.

We all know that the gender pay gap is not a gender pay gap. We all know that people like Caroline Dinenage peddle this myth knowing that the gap is purely based on hours worked and qualifications gathered. We all know she is a LIAR. The gap cannot fairly be closed without equal hours worked and equal dedication to career progression. If women make lifestyle choices that make equal pay impossible, then it is their choice to let hubby bring home all or most of the bacon.

Or rely on a benefits system which, as men do the most paid work, is largely paid for by their contributions.

And as for suffrage, we also know that huge numbers of men didn't have the vote either, and died fighting in wars they had to fight for governments they could not elect or deselect. And that men had other accountabilities women did not.

From 'The Times':

A health minister has dubbed the NHS the “National He Service” as the government begins a review into the gender pay gap in medicine.

Caroline Dinenage, the care minister, said that the health service “needs to do much more to level the playing field for its senior staff”. [J4MB: In what ways is the playing field not already level?]

Today the government will announce a review by Professor Jane Dacre, president of the Royal College of Physicians, into what drives the gap and potential solutions.

“It is hard to avoid a lingering suspicion that the NHS, in some cases, still stands for the National He Service,” Ms Dinenage said in an online article for The Times.

“This is a profoundly important issue, not just in terms of fairness and equality but also in terms of how we create the strongest and safest healthcare system we can.

“And to do that, we need to make sure NHS organisations are inclusive and able to extract the talent of their workforce. My view is that gender pay equality is a litmus test for that — and on that measure all the evidence suggests that the NHS needs to do much better.”

Male doctors receive basic pay of £67,788 compared with £57,569 for female doctors, and male consultants are four times more likely to be paid a bonus than their female counterparts.

A century on from women first getting the vote, Ms Dinenage said that the most appropriate tribute to the work of suffragists would be parity between the sexes “in our pay cheques”. The NHS has a gap of 23 per cent, despite women outnumbering men in its workforce.

The gap is driven because highly paid male doctors make up a bigger proportion of the male cohort than well-paid female doctors do of the female cohort.

Launching the review, Jeremy Hunt, health and social care secretary, is expected to say: “The NHS holds a unique position in both British and global society as a shining beacon of equality among all, and so it is unacceptable that 70 years from its creation its own staff still face gender inequality.”

He will also say that he is determined to eliminate the gap for doctors.

More women enter the medical workforce than men. At present there are 3,418 female doctors in their first year of training after medical school, compared with 2,745 men. However, at the top of the career ladder there are more men than women, with 31,290 male consultants compared with 17,317 female consultants.

The review will consider what might stop a female doctor progressing in the same way as her male colleagues, including working patterns, the impact of motherhood or caring responsibilities, and geographical factors.

Absolutely monstrous. This focusing on women and totally ignoring the work and sacrifices of men is what happens when you let a hate ideology, like Feminism, in to democratic institutions.
