It's a good question and one that I think about a lot. Yes men might get paid more in certain aspects, but a good looking woman can get paid hundreds to kick a man in the balls, or chew gum on cam, or just basically for standing there and existing.
There's definitely too many variables to consider to give a straight answer.
I'd say society treats happy women better than happy men. If a girl goes around dancing and singing just because she's happy it's considered sweet and cute but I think with a male heterosexual there's pressure to not act happy even if you are happy.
I think men have to put up with worse jobs, possibly more violence, on the other hand can get away with being ugly as long as their either clever or strong. Women have to cope with periods and pregnancy.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
