Well, it's statistically grounded in reality, but much less so for discriminatory reasons than simple gender mechanics.

It often starts with first job interviews, when the men are more assertive and fearless with salary negotiation and women are tentative and complacent. The gap just grows from there.

Discrimination is certainly a factor. There are certain industries/fields which are openly hostile to women and treat them as second class citizens and that skews the market.

If I start out treating my employees equally and the other company in town pays men more, then one of two things will happen. Either my male employees will come back with better offers I have to match, or the other company will hire all of them away at a higher rate and there will be an overall pay gap (with my company having a higher profit).

The real irony is where actual discrimination happens--academia, journalism, Hollywood, and the offices of congressional Democrats. The other irony is that it would be a huge help to women if they had the right to flex time as compensation for working overtime--and it's the left that opposes their right to have that choice.

Part of the myth too. But something tells me you don't care.
