Women's Network hosts bake sale to illustrate gender wage gap

Ah, feminist hypocrisy. To combat the 'so called' wage gap, these women will discriminate against men by charging them more for baked goods? If I was attending this college I would submit a complaint to the dean.

The real problem is the inaccuracy in the wage gap. Study after study has shown the wage gap is made up of things like years of experience, hours worked, job types, etc. When corrected for all these things the unexplained gap is about 5 cents.....and even that has not been shown to be based on discrimination, it merely can't be explained. This is just another disinformation campaign brought to you by a special interest group.

Personally I wouldn't accept cookies from this group even if they were free. Who knows, all the ones given to men could be filled with a little dose of cyanide.
