That must have been too long of a ramble. Did you miss this part? I had to accept a salary that was $1200 per year lower than my male predecessor, and I had to have a Master's degree to be interviewed, (newly required for the position) when my predecessor only had a Bachelor's degree?
OK, but how did you rule out other factors? What if the city cut some library funding and simultaneously upped the requirements for that position? How did you establish a causal relationship between your gender and the new requirements/pay?
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
