The data indicates that when you factor in the variables that I mentioned above, as well as many others, the gender gap all but vanishes (down to a couple of percent).
Of course, It should be 0% (provided that all other variables are equal). I don’t think anyone should be discriminated against based on their identity. Thinking we’ll ever actually get to 0% is a naive game though. Utopia doesn’t exist, nor will it ever exist. That doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t keep striving to improve of course, but spouting off nonsense like the 77% figure doesn’t help anyone or anything. Spreading false / misleading information will only hinder social progress.
