I used to work in the financial industry, specifically in a program geared toward women (trying to make financial services more approachable and inclusive). Much of their published "educational" material is about the harsh financial realities of being a woman, and the writers keep repeating this falsehood ... as if the phrase "controlled pay gap" is profanity.
Don't get me wrong, we should still be mindful of bias. We should acknowledge the pressure on women to take career breaks as caretakers (and, on the flip side, the pressure on men to be primary wage earners). And it's perfectly valid to question whether pink collar work is undervalued and underpaid because these are traditionally female occupations.
But the women I worked with (most of them VPs in finance) simply preferred to believe that they were underpaid because of their gender. No matter what dollar figure you offered, no matter the industry/company/job role/etc., they would firmly believe that having a penis = 20% pay bump.
Surely it's like that line from Rattatuille, "not everybody can become a great chef, but a great chef can come from anywhere"
So in a sense it's true that you can grow up to become anything, but there's an unspoken caveat that the above is only true if you can overcome your own personal economic/societal/mental/physical/geographical obstacles.
That thing is more about collapsing options as time moves on though. When you're a kid you really can be 'anything' ignoring social and economic stuff. The probability curve is pretty open to anything at that point though. Once you're thirty it feels squarely like that is less true and my options are clearer but more limited.
It's scary but also awesome that you have so many open doors as a kid and adults that say this are mostly envying something they've lost and didn't appreciate or see until later
EDIT: The myth that peeing is a precise art that our organs can successfully aim all of the time.
There's all kinds of "spray patterns" that the organ produces. Its the skill of the adult human who has mastered their organ and has figured out the peeing patterns to successfully hit the toilet in most cases, although there are some patterns that contradict other patterns which means there's always a chance you (hopefully temporarily) miss the toilet until your aim readjusts.
A few years back I started sitting to pee, and my god it's so much better. No worries about it spraying everywhere, you don't have to pay any attention, just sit and pee. I still pee in urinals when out in public of course, but at home it's all sit all the time.
