In this very competitive world the issue of whether men and women earn the same salary, or of whether they should or not throughout their lives, has long been under discussion. Statistics show that females have finally found a way to earn the same amount as their male co-workers, and that is by staying single for as long as possible. However, how much money a woman or a man makes is only a matter of choice. Females are not cheated out of their money, as it has been speculated before. They simply choose to focus on other things, like children and family life, instead of their career. It’s after 30 that most women have their first baby and their priorities in life change.
I think it’s a matter of choice! People earn the same until they get together, and then they make choices about work, family and lifestyle. That is what adults are expected to do – make decisions. I suspect that in reality the pay advantage lies with women, and I think the whole pay gap debate should stop now. Prioritizing is often behind women having smaller salaries.
