So anecdotal evidence isn't enough for you? Can only be used to support your post?

I'm on my phone heading to BR, so this article will have to do

And some of what y'all have said is true, but there is still a pay gap. Women demand more flexibility and that cost $$

Indeed, of the 534 professions listed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, women on average earn more than men in only seven of them, a group composed of 1.5 million working women, or only 3 percent of the full-time female work force.

I'm saying that such discrimination does not exist, has not existed for ages, could not exist in this day and age, and no one making these allegations has provided any evidence that they do exist. If you want solid evidence, go to any company's web site and research job opportunities. I doubt you'll find anyone that lists starting pay figures that will have separate starting figures for men and women. Using my employer as an example, being a female alone, is compensation for not meeting or exceeding the minimum qualifications for getting hired, and gets you put at the head of the line before many exceedingly more qualified male applicants.
