Learn about correlation.
It's clear that women are paid less. It's not clear the exact degree to which they are paid less because they are women.
There are several things about women, taken as a population, that make them different than men-- personality traits (i.e. kindness, aggression, etc.), reproductive roles and timing, different interests, and so on.

Unless sexist bosses are imposing reproduction on the mothers, then the financial hit is mainly coming because women tend to care for their babies (no duh), and men tend to carry on with their carries after their offspring are born.
