"it's a fact in our society that men make more money than women"
I would like to solicit opinions, mailed or posted, on how this
inequality can be minimized. I can think of two issues right off:
society doesn't place a high enough value on the kind of work
women traditionally do, such as nursing, teaching, homemaking
and secretarial, among others. On the other hand, most women are
not attracted to many professions which pay better, such as law,
medicine (doctors) and engineering (present audience excepted).
I'm also curious if young women are giving fields such as engineering
more consideration than it has been given in the past.
