Like a lot of what passes for liberalism these days the battle against the 'gender gap' is a war against human nature in the service of the cynical quest for power

Megan McCardle does a good 'feminist' job of dismantling the Obami profoundly dishonest 77 cent argument. But IMHO she abuses the word 'sexism' to explain the small residual that remains when one adjusts wages for all known factors.

Isn't it enough that women make almost as much as men, live longer, have effective ownership of their children unless they don't want to and have many protections - under law and culture that men don't?

The question isn't why women are so oppressed it's why some women are so greedy. McCardle at the link.
