Nonsense-it’s a myth
If that’s true why don’t businesses hire only women? Or do businesses have a math problem? If only women were hired - assuming a wage gap of 20%, businesses can hire women, pay them 20% less than men and apply the savings to their bottom line. Pay is based on occupation, position, hours worked per week, education. Choice of majors was found the most critical parameter for pay by the Department of Labor Statistics. It did a metanalysis of studies and found that four out of the five highest paying majors are sought by men: petroleum engineering, aerospace engineering, chemical engineering. Pharmaceutical sciences are the only major whereby only 48% are represented by males. (Georgetown U.) On the other hand, four of the five worst paying majors are sought by females: counseling/psychology, early childhood education, theology and religious studies community organization and social work. Even within professions there are differences in wages based on choices Male nurses make a difference of 18% higher wages because males tend to choose to work more hours, tend to work in specialty areas and males are more ready to relocate. The real gender differences are negligible and there are too many parameters that enter in to making job choices, the Dept. Of Labor is unable to unravel the marginal differences of around 4.8% No businesses don’t have a math problem. The feminists, Hollywood types and the radical left have a problem with telling the truth.
