Even if the data says women are paid less, it doesn't say why. Correlation does not show causation. The implication is that there is gender discrimination. Research by women into the gender wage gap has explored a large number (but not all) reasons for this and shown the actual gender wage gap when taking into account actual reasons is only as high as 8%, with more research and experimentation underway to account for additional reasons. This is the most current objective research on the subject I am aware of.

Summary with a link to the research paper, which is really good science as demonstrated with experimentation and doesn't try to sell a narrative, BTW. Worth the read. http://www.news.cornell.edu/stories/2016/03/ilr-school-resea...

"New research by ILR School professors Francine Blau and Lawrence Kahn finds an eight percent gender wage gap that cannot be accounted for, even after controlling for observable variables that influence workers’ pay.

Gender discrimination in the workplace COULD be a cause, they suggest."

> The conclusions is backed by data. The data is in the link. Go look at it. See? Glass Door says women are underpaid. That's data!

The data shows there is a difference in pay.

Underpaid means less pay for the same work.

That's not the same thing. Not even close.

In fact it is intentionally misleading.

Not all data is equal. The collection methodology for glassdoor isn't much better than an online poll.
