Just as an example.............

Let's take the PO I work at as a microcosm.......

There are males and females in all jobs. Clerks, mailhandlers, techs, etc.

On average, the Males earn about 15-20% more than most (not all) of the females. How is that so, when we're a union shop, everyone's on the same wage scale, and equal opportunity is brutally enforced?

Very simply, out of all the female clerks, there are Three on the OT list. Out of all the mailhandlers, there are two females on the OT list. Out of all the maintenance personnel, there is one female on the OT list.

I would be amused to see the results of a study comparing annual compensation in relation to hours worked for males and females (By payroll data, not census data), but I can't find one.
No one is saying that white males are the "source of all evil." Admittedly, part of the reason that women make, ON AVERAGE, less than men, is because they are in lower paying jobs, such as daycare workers, etc. But, we need to ask ourselves, do women seek out lower paying careers, or are they placed there, in many ways, by the constraints of our society?
