. Here's the info you requested that was widely reported on last year -
link . After reading this and many other articles on the "wage gap", my instincts on this were spot on. Women make smarter choices than men about their priorities. If more men made similar choices to women when it came to the work/family balance, the world might be a better place(and men would have to complain about women making more than them).
If you really want to be on the cutting edge, you should look into getting companies out of trouble where men are getting paid less for the same work!

Here's another related
link and a quote:
Anne Preston finds that the public university science graduates she
studied sorted themselves between a “parent track” and a “fast
track.” The earnings of women who remain single and childless
actually surpassed those of men who report spending substantial
time engaged in child care.
