Question

Why are women paid less than man?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Women's rights activist Lilly Ledbetter speaks at the Democratic National Convention. (Reuters)

At last night's presidential debate, audience member Katherine Fenton got up and asked how the candidates planned to fix the fact that women make "only 72 percent of what their male counterparts earn." It's a familiar stat that, as some conservatives argued today, is also a bit misleading. When you compare men and women who work similar hours in similar jobs, the gap shrinks significantly.
