A new report shows that the wage gap between men and women in Boston is substantial. On average, women in the Greater Boston area make 70 cents for every dollar a white man makes. It has been reported that this is the largest gap since the previous analysis since 2017. The 2017 study found that women in the Greater Boston area earn 76 cents per every dollar men earn. When stratified, the situation is significantly worse for black and Latina women.

Un-possible!!!!!! Boston is the liberal mecca of America!!!
All those women need to do is identify as men...automatic 43% raise.
Beau knows that dollar for dollar he can’t AFFORD to pay me what I’m worth for all that I do on our farm, as well as tending to him, covering HIS chores, as well as my own, for weeks at a time when he’s off hunting or fishing and also caring for our home and yard. Plus three meals a day (plus snacks!) nearly 365!

And he works VERY hard to make sure Mama is HAPPY at all times and has the resources she needs to complete her assigned duties! ;)
These disgruntled Boston Chicks need to follow me around for a day. They’ll be BEGGING to go back to The Big City where they’re so woefully ‘oppressed,’ in a heartbeat!
*SMIRK*
How about Base salary times number of testicles, and divided by number of mammaries?
Each person can use the same salary formula.
Sounds very equitable to me.
More women stay home with the kids, opt for part time work or don’t work for whatever reason.
I think you're on to somethin' here......
“Women in Boston make far less than men”
the obvious solution is for underpaid women to move out of Boston ...
Betting there are street walkers that make a lot more than men.
“But Boston is a city Run by Democrats and has been for decades.”
I conclude after reading your post that the muckety mucks in Boston don’t care that women earn less and don’t see it as a big issue.
bttt
In a place I live women are making less than men too but the reason is they have right to shorter hours and more days off and they all use it.
Of course they do, on the whole, they do not work as hard, in hard jobs or as long.
Would anyone like to guess the skill gap, let alone difference in legal status, between white male and Latina workers in Boston?
and male nurses climb the ladder more often.
women tend to go into nursing because of its flexibility
I actually worked for a company in that area in the early ‘80s that followed that strategy — hire women and you could get more talent and hours put in for less — back when that fit the situation.
Now and for most of the last 40 years? Not so much.
Of course Boston Dem pols care and see it as a big issue — for demagoguery!
How much does Harvard contribute to this disparity?
If the muckity mucks dont care apparently the voters dont care either.
They just like to complain about it.
