Some point to certain purported salary differences between men and women as evidence of sexism, particularly in the corporate world. Using the slogan "equal pay for equal work", agitators claim that many women in the same positions as men earn less. However, these allegations fail to accurately compare the actual work (i.e. value added to the company) done by the individuals in question. Since men and women naturally have different strengths and weaknesses, it's quite natural in certain jobs for men to perform better (and vice-versa - in certain activities women are better). | Some point to certain purported salary differences between men and women as evidence of sexism, particularly in the corporate world.
