I had an English teacher who once told our class that women make 71 cents for each dollar that men make and that it was an indisputable fact. The vast majority of teachers are leftists who aren’t very bright and want to use their power to indoctrinate the programmable minds of children.

Female teacher? I swear only women believe that crap.

Yeah it was a female teacher. Imagine actually thinking that, all else equal, you get paid less than your male counterpart.

then where are the businesses that only employ women and make 29% more profit (neglecting non-payroll overhead)?

I don't think they actually believe it. They just know that if they somehow win that argument, they'll get paid more than men do.

If wahman believe that women consistently make less than men, then how come it is so hard for them to find a man to date who makes more money than them?

Easiest way to disprove that: If women were EXACTLY as knowledgeable/efficient/hardworking/loyal/reliable as men but were all paid 71 cents for each dollar, then NO COMPANY would EVER hire a man until EVERY SINGLE WOMAN had either been hired or taken themselves off the job market.

Why pay nearly 30% more per worker for no additional benefit?

These women who believe the wage gap are the same women who lament about not being able to find a man to date/marry that makes more money than them. If only they saw the irony.

Even many of the women who are top-class business executives, with 6- or 7-figure salaries, big penthouses/houses/mansions, and expensive cars, still largely desire men who are older than them and make more money than them, only to get depressed and complain when they can't find anyone who meets their standards.

A better path for women would be to marry young, raise a family, stay at home with the kids until they are old enough to not need babysitters, and THEN go back to school or re-enter the job market. You'll lose ~10 years of education/employment compared to people who jump straight in, but you'll have a family that cares for you, a decade of real-world experience in things that are truly essential (micro-economics from balancing the budget, financial planning from saving for vacations, personnel management from keeping your kids in line and raising them into well-rounded adults, charisma and public speaking from being active in your kids' lives and attending things like PTA meetings, etc.), and a minimal net loss of salary by the time you're ready to retire with your spouse.
