Okay I guess you're just illiterate. YOU are the one that asserts that a bigger man/woman gap means there is more sexism. Therefore, YOU consider Iceland one of the MOST sexist countries, because it has a HUGE man/woman gap in construction, MUCH wider and further away from 50/50 than in the vast majority of countries.
That is the conclusion YOUR logic produces, not mine.
Therefore, the obvious conclusion, for any rational thinking person, is that it is clearly incorrect to equate the size of that gap to the level of gender equality.
You still can't contend with the simple burning question that arises from the two simple facts above, so until you address it, the following is all you're going to get from me as a response from now on:
If sexism is the cause of that gap, how is it that the gap is larger in less sexist countries, than it is in more sexist countries?
