>I agree with your point that people need to be careful to not dismiss the gender gap issue (which certainly exists for anyone over a certain age)
But why not be careful in blindingly accepting it? Alot of it is based on questionable application of statistics. Why not let the data speak for itself rather than providing creative interpretations?
For example, the early talking points were based on taking an average without even matching by job type. Ofcourse the part-time nanny doesn't earn as much as an overtime coal miner. That doesn't show a wage-gap.
