Men Don't Take a Wage Hit?

The So-called Wage Gap Tumescent writes "An associated press story is here and probably in a newspaper near you! The article seems innocuous enough. It simply states the fact that women take a salary hit when they leave the workforce for family reasons. Well duh, ANYONE would probably take a salary hit if they took a year or more off from their career. That would probably include both women and men, not just women. Of course the research study was limited to studying women, not men. This way, the results could be viewed as being discriminatory toward women and they can be seen as the victim once again."

"Nearly four in 10 of those surveyed said they have intentionally chosen a job with fewer responsibilities and lower pay in a tradeoff for having the time for family life."

Albeit this is done 'intentionally' it is still regarded as discrimination in pay by the male dominated upper echelons !
