Wage Gap? Lesbians earn more than straight women - but gay men earn less.

Love the way it's so obviously special pleading.

Gay men earn less? Must be discrimination!

Lesbians earn more? Must be lifestyle choices.

Women earn less? Must be sexism.

Men earn less? Must be lifestyle choices.

Decisions might include staying in education longer, choosing a degree more likely to lead to a higher paying job, working longer hours or choosing a male-dominated career path where average salaries are higher

Why are these just "decisions" for lesbians earning more, but a horribly oppressive society for other women?

As 2014 comes to a close, don't miss the worldwide victim battle. What group will claim this years top victim status? Will it be gays, lesbians, trannys, jews, women, or will some yet unknown group forge to the front in this heated battle for top victim. Get your victim cred in now, vote early and vote often.

Lesbians earn more than hetero women because of pregnancy and the effects that has on career trajectory, not because of 'bias towards masculine traits', unless 'not getting pregnant' is the primary trait of masculinity? This is the biggest contributor to the difference between men's and women's median pays. Take the UK, for example. Women are delaying having children until their late 30s their, and now women aged between 22 and 40 out earn men in the same age bracket.

And black women earn more than white women (of equal education). Generally earning more money indicates a lack of privilege, or to put it the other way, if you can afford to not earn much, it's because you have privilege that brings in money for you.
