Actually yes,, women do make more. They FILL the medical field and legal fields. They are an overwhelming majority of both law and medical schools.
And look at almost any support style business having to do with medicine. Again,,filled.
Ditto banking,, go into almost any branch and it’s women officers and management.
And for real giggles, try to get a university professorship in any discipline besides hard sciences without being a minority or a woman.
And i cannot REMEMBER the last time i’ve met a “human resources director” that wasn’t a female. That field is nearly 100% female dominated.

You must be a woman,,,And even if you are in the one strange industry with more “offices” than “cubicles”, i suggest you are missing the larger picture.

Are you really trying to defend the article's claim that young women have 15 times the earning power of young men in major cities? Yes, women have the edge in some fields, but the 15 times claim is dubious at best.

White male, 40+ years old, and I teach university history.

Your knowledge of college obviously comes from talk radio and other fantasies.

Four out of five of our senior staff (Associate and Full Professors) are male, and I’m due to join them within a year. And that’s good, because my foundation grant runs out after three semesters.

Admittedly, our school is considered elite, but wouldn’t that make it even more susceptible to affirmative action?
