If you have two male truck drivers and one delivers ten times as much goods as the other, while working the same amount of time, do you think they should get the same pay?

Pope: Equal pay for equal work
The Associated PressApr 29th 2015 10:00AM

VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Pope Francis has added his voice to the feminist anthem of equal pay for equal work, saying it's "scandalous" that women earn less than men for doing the same job.

Francis also lambasted the attitude of some who blame the crisis in families on women getting out of the house to work. He says such attitudes are a form of "machismo" that shows how men "want to dominate women."

Francis made the comments during his Wednesday general audience. He has devoted the past few months of his weekly catechism lessons to exploring different aspects of family life.

Francis says husband and wife must be complementary: "We should support with decisiveness the right to equal pay for equal work. Why is it a given that women must earn less than men?"
