My friend Josh, a hot-shot attorney in Atlanta, doesn't believe that men still make more money than women do for doing the same job. He says if there is any difference at all, it's because women don't work as many hours or as hard or don't have the exact same responsibilities....blah, blah, blah.  Despite numerous studies to the contrary, Josh vehemently denies their is a gender pay gap. Well, today on CNN's homepage, there is an article on a new study, which not only disagrees with Josh and other bull headed men, but it reveals knew insights into the unequal pay practice. This study shows that right out of college women make 80 percent of what men make for the same jobs. But what's shocking is that 10 years after graduating from college, with all things being equal, women make just 69 percent of what their adams-apple rich counterparts do. |

So I have a date this weekend. Now this wouldn't be a problem if I was back in Georgia, but in the state of California I've learned that guys generally expect you to chip in for dates. Naturally, I found this out the hard way, after going out on a date a few months ago. It started off well: attractive guy, great conversation, chemistry, for sure. But when the check came, he says, "I have to ask you something that's going to go against all your southern values." "Ummmm, okay," I muttered, expecting some form of sexual invitation to follow. But it was worse. "I believe in going dutch on the first date," he says very seriously. |
