Maybe in 1776 that happened...
Maybe you're right.
But for darn sure it happens here and now.
Yeah, well maybe 1776 needs to put up stats. Most women do not start their careers late. In fact, many put having a family on hold and have a career first. So now that fallacy has been put to bed, why are women paid less than men?
Women put their careers on hold mid career. Women also tend to go into lower paying fields than men. Men also tend to work harder once children are born, women less hard.
Now, once you correct for all those things, finding a woman who has never been married and never had kids and pursued a career path all the time, you find women are paid more than men.
This really is neither difficult nor unknown. I'd suggest reading up on it before blowing your mouth off and looking like an idiot.
