re: If the Wage Gap Exists, Why Do Companies Hire Men?

This all comes from a conversation I had tonight with one of my friends in Colorado. She owns a very successful, large scale organic farm. She's also the crunchiest of hippies. She brought up the wage gap and nattered on for a while before I interrupted her and asked, "So does that mean you're going to hire women instead of Mexicans for the harvest."

She got mad and hung up the phone.
