[ originally written for a different forum ] Women who work as much as men,
i.e. don't take time off for child care, earn as much[1]. The old stats were
often not normalized for education either. Now that women are more likely to
have a college education than men, their incomes are higher than men (among
those who work as much).

In other words, the liberal complain.t about gender pay disparity
demonstrating sexism is wrong, at least in recent years. The drive for price
fixing wages ("comparable worth" as it is disingenuously labelled) is based
on a fallacy of an unnormalized statistical sample.

If all you look for is sexism, it's all you'll find, even when it's not
there.
