Well, Belinda Brown is just flat out full of shit, isn't she? Here she writes: It is also true that the alleged pay gap is, in fact, only an affliction confined to privileged women. Among the less well-off women are paid more than men. And here is the report she relies upon: more women work in lower paid jobs or sectors. women are more likely to work part-time, which can mean a lower rate of pay. women are under-represented in senior roles. This may be due to stereotypical attitudes about gender roles, lack of flexible working or women taking time to look after their family. ~ Office of National Statistics (her citation) I should also add that you are bonkers if you think we live in only a two-tiered social system. I can think of six or seven levels of hell without difficulty.
