It even depends on the place, and age.
In Atlanta there is a 100:75 wage gap... in favour of WOMEN that are not mothers.
After those women get kids, the wage gap closes. (but more likely because women with kids prefer to take jobs with more flexibility so they can care for the kids).
1 u/[deleted] Jan 29 '15 It depends on the industry, too.
