If women rule then why on average do they get paid less than men?

We don’t. That’s not true.

@memyselfandyou I cant copy & paste that, I’m on my phone.

But, a Wikipedia article? Really? Lol!

@SevenTierCrazyCake yes... it contains some good and well documented stats in it..
@memyselfandyou we actually don’t get paid less though. There are however a lot of factors as to why we earn less on average.

To name but a few: pregnancy, as someone else here said, the fact that we tend to choose careers that on average have lower wages, the fact that men on average work more hours.

Wikipedia is not a good source of reference, stats or not. That’s just silly.
