These women who believe the wage gap are the same women who lament about not being able to find a man to date/marry that makes more money than them. If only they saw the irony.
Even many of the women who are top-class business executives, with 6- or 7-figure salaries, big penthouses/houses/mansions, and expensive cars, still largely desire men who are older than them and make more money than them, only to get depressed and complain when they can't find anyone who meets their standards.
A better path for women would be to marry young, raise a family, stay at home with the kids until they are old enough to not need babysitters, and THEN go back to school or re-enter the job market. You'll lose ~10 years of education/employment compared to people who jump straight in, but you'll have a family that cares for you, a decade of real-world experience in things that are truly essential (micro-economics from balancing the budget, financial planning from saving for vacations, personnel management from keeping your kids in line and raising them into well-rounded adults, charisma and public speaking from being active in your kids' lives and attending things like PTA meetings, etc.), and a minimal net loss of salary by the time you're ready to retire with your spouse.
