Does that make it easier to grasp why this is a serious problem.

What would make it easier to grasp that this is a serious problem is if you had evidence it occurred to any significant degree. You are telling me a huge business opportunity exists and no one is exploiting it.

If you can find good women being paid less for doing the same job or who find themselves not getting hired, send them my way. I'd love to hire them myself.

Until you do (or hire them yourself), I'm lumping you in with all the inefficient market crackpots.

I linked http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/2011/mar/08/internat... elsewhere in the thread, you might find it interesting to peruse.

You realize your link shows that after taking into account easy controls (overtime, part time work), 60% of the gap goes away, right?

You also realize that your link looks at age, but not work experience. I.e., a 35 year old woman who vanished from the workforce at age 28 gets paid less than a man who didn't. Not discrimination. It's lesser pay for lesser experience.
