A sign saying: “MEN TEND TO CHOOSE HIGH PAYING PROFESSIONS - LIKE DOCTOR, ENGINEER, CEO, ETC., WHILE WOMEN NATURALLY GO TOWARD LOWER PAYING CAREERS - LIKE FEMALE DOCTOR, FEMALE ENGINEER, AND FEMALE CEO.”

Women weren’t allowed to have ANY jobs less than a lifetime ago.
There is absolutely no logic in your leap from “I see bias” to “phisological differences in genders warrant differences in pay.”
It’s fallacy all the way down with a large rosy tinted privilege lens.

if you were cute, obedient, and good with makeup maybe you could be a housewife too but the patriarchy doesn’t want to let you have that life
The pay gap discussion doesn’t only revolve around some work being compensated less than other work (retail vs some office job). The main issue, as far as I’m informed, lies in the same work being compensated differently solely based on gender.
Another point considering work that is better performed by men. We may call for fair wages taking the different output into account. But at least a discussion should be had on whether we want that (equality vs equity).
That last picture isn’t liberation, they’re now in the field of play and are therefore the shittiest outfielders I’ve ever seen. Setting aside not being in uniforms, they’re all like 20 feet from 2nd base and so tightly clustered there’s effectively no coverage in LF or RF. A line drive anywhere but dead center scores a runner on first in the best case scenario, more likely an easy inside-the-parker. If I was their skipper they’d be running drills till the sun came up.
liberation will fix the tall guys bald spot
NB: While barbers mostly work with men’s hair, and stylists mostly work with women’s, the jobs themselves are not gendered-- Lots of female barbers and male stylists. Some of the most famous stylists, like Vidal Sassoon for example, are male. Famous barbers are less of a thing, but on the total other end of the spectrum, the barber college in my area has a pretty even gender balance.
A thing to take into account is male dominant professions sometimes being wildly toxic towards women which will push them away from that career path.
It’s also worth noting that careers like teaching were once highly respected and well-paying fields dominated by men. However, once women became more dominant in the field, the career as a whole lost both respect and pay essentially overnight. Nothing about the job itself changed, only the dominant gender.
It’s honestly disgusting that people still try to defend this misogyny as some kind of physiological thing.
