Okay that's why wages went down.

Now do why men's wages went down less

It's also a stupid excuse for wages going down to begin with. Especially since we know that we are currently in a labour shortage which according to capitalist supply and demand theory should have immediately caused wages to increase, and I don't think the shortage is gender specific.
