> ... This is a clever way of avoiding saying that the gendered pay gap still exists, in favor of men, but has been narrowing. In fact, it has started to reverse. When controlled for experience and hours worked, and comparing pay for the same job, young women out-earn young men. The reason for this is simple: the ratio of men and women in college has flipped since the 90s, going from 60:40 in favor of men to now roughly 60:40 in favor of women. We'll see if that remains true in the long-term, however, as women tend to pay a steep penalty, compensation-wise, for maternity leave. |
