Pay Gap Primer

CampusProgress.org has a great article this week explaining everything you need to know about the national pay gap and the attempts to rectify it. Caution: Article comes complete with anti-feminist comments!

PS. Despite rampant whining from nay-sayers, if anyone would bother to READ the AAUW report they would find:

The regression analysis of earnings one year after graduation
for the combined sample of women and men shows a gender pay difference of 5 percent, controlling for educational and occupational choices as well as demographic and personal characteristics (see figure 23) [emphasis mine].


And in Figure 23, we find: Education, Industry, Sector, Undergrad Major, Age, Marital Status, and Number of Children (among others). WOW, READING!
