Women have been discriminated against in the past. The question is whether they still are, when anti-discrimination laws have been around for decades and penalties are severe.
Women still tend to earn less. But there can be valid reasons. Many leave jobs in mid-career for maternity reasons; that distorts statistical averages. Others prefer to spend more time with family.
However, there are more variations in certain professions than others. Hostile environment may often remain. Occurrences depend on profession or industry.
Women’s needs may also differ within jobs, especially where measures of hostility may actually exist. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
