There is pay parity in health care jobs. There is complete parity in all government jobs, at both the state and federal level. There is complete parity in the military. That is a whole lot of folks. There is complete parity in most entry level jobs in both the public and private sectors. The biggest bitches and moans are for the top jobs that are few and far between.

Looking at graduates, most female graduates will earn between 20 and 25% less than their male counterpartds even if they go into the same industry. In the UK female graduates can expect to earn approx. 17.5% less than their male counterparts. Why this is is difficult to answer and combines a number of factors both economic, societal and biological. The fact remains that males on average earn more than females. Count it how you like, that makes men the economically more powerful sex.
