I'm a man in the ~89.6% height percentile. I'm taller than 99.89% of women. Therefore, I require more food to survive than 99.89% of women. If we're going to start enforcing equity, I should be paid more than almost every woman to accommodate my individual food needs.

This is an excellent argument. Most men make more money, but they also spend more on food and water due to biological needs.

Men make almost the same when you control for education, experience, etc. If women make less, why not hire all women? The pay gap people spout has been debunked so many times that I can't believe it is still out there as a "fact".
