"In fact, as a study by the Employment Policy Foundation (EPF) reveals, women sometimes out-earn their male counterparts. "

I have been suspicious of these claims that women earn far less than men for sometime. My wife has consistently earned more money than I have for the entire 13 years that we have been married. Now to a certain degree that can be attributed to the fact that she has been in the Fortune 500 world longer than I have, I spent several years working in small business before I stated working in the corporate world.

But over that last 5-8 years I have run into many professional men who claim that their wives earn more than they do. To a certain degree, I have been attributing this to a potential regional difference and that maybe in some parts of the country there is a disparity in wages between men and women. However, in the last few years I have seen this occur so many times that the only conclusion that I can now come to is that the wage disparity myth is just that, a myth.

Actually, unless things have changed a lot since I was single, ALASKA is the best state for women...roughly 7 men to every single female there.

Best states for women == States with shall-issue CCW permits

I saw that. I thought maybe they would say state with more men than women would be good for them so they can get more dates. LOL!
