It's called "earnings gap" and it has nothing to do with discrimination based on gender,this is a fact,I'm not making this up.
If you are genuinely interested in the topic, give this article a read, http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/harvar...le/2580405
It's by a Harvard professor Claudia Goldin,who happens to be a woman.
Please, for the love of God don't fall for one of those articles again.
Men earning more than women in 439 out of 446 American jobs is an interesting statistic, Pool. And it is caused by a multitude of factors, it's not only gender discrimination. I will go read your posted article, but I have witnessed discrimination and inequality personally. So neither of us can say that the other side is putting out false propaganda for their own purposes - what is needed is an unbiased look at ALL the factors, and ways for both sides to come together to find a way to alter this 439 out of 446 result into something more equitable.
I'm genuinely curious about the experience you had. Can you please share?
