>Not to mention that two people in the same organization may do the same job, but one may be paid higher due to more experience or more education. They are doing the same work, but are paid differently for those reasons. We know that happens all the time. The lower paid individual may actually do a better job, but he/she may not be paid the same because most often the pay level is determined at the time of hiring.

Now since most of the best places where to make a career are run or owned by rich white Christian males, a woman's best bet is to go independent, so not to depend on any boss.

Except... see how they came down on Martha Stewart like a ton of bricks. I'm estimating there were at least a dozen others who did worse things, but were members of the old boys' network and weren't investigated, simply because nobody complained.

Martha Stewart was a warning. But one has to admire her how she used her jail time as good PR. She didn't even have to warn the newspapers to spell her name right.
