The gender wage gap does exist, it's just the fact that the feminists don't look at it from a broad enough perspective. It's a simple fact that many women take time out of their careers in order to raise families, meaning there's a good number of years where they are not climbing the career ladder. Perhaps when they go back to work, they do not wish to focus on their career any more.

But they still earn the same amount in whatever job they're doing as a man does. Sometimes you have to put into consideration the occasions where a woman (or man) has to take time off work to care for their child. It's not as point blank as feminists would like it to be.

Anyway, I understand the intentions behind political correctness, it just bugs me when people take it to such extremes when it's not necessary. And if you can't tell, I'm not a big fan of feminism either.
