As a woman I would say that childbirth and staying out of the workforce for periods of time, are the biggest reasons women are not on par in pay. So while a lot of them start at the same pay, those absences held them back.

And if they are single moms, it's harder to work OT.

Also, although it's much rarer these days, working married mothers were the ones that were usually expected to take off when the child was sick. Lots of women got tired of the hassle both at home and work, and just gave up, which took a lot of them out of the market for longer periods of time, or completely.

My wife and I take off when the kids are sick based on who has the most sick leave or vacation time remaining or who has the most pressing deadline approaching at work. Not sure why anyone would make this decision based on any other factors.
