An Analysis of Reasons for the Disparity in Wages Between Men and Women [PDF]

What I do not understand about the wage gap myth is simply why is no one called on the 'for the same work' lie?

Many quotes from the public figure that promote the myth are factually untrue, they are provably false because there is NO data anywhere showing women are payed less for 'the same work' or 'the same job' at all.

The phrases "for the same work" , "for the exact same job" those are the weak points of this construct, and they are not attacked often enough.

edit: I feel like rambling on a bit, no one is obligated to read.

Walmart is the largest american employer. When Walmart hires a man, they pay him minimum wage, so when they hire a woman they pay her what, 75% of minimum?

Why do we allow people to compare the wages of part time fast food workers to the wages of plumbers and claim this is 'the exact same work' to loud feminist applause?

Interesting pages, the Key Findings section... appendix A starts on page 43. Pretty much gives the results of studies with citations. A lot of them pretty much say what we already know, it also says what is wrong with the findings of a lot of the studies they reference.
