    Oh wow. My university just invited me to a careers event for women. I anticipated wage gap myths but no. It's addressing findings that women are very likely to underestimate their worth & much less prepared to be competitive about it. I approve of this.

        This is actually a useful thing to be doing. A seminar on how to find out what your skills are worth and negotiate the best deal for them in a competitive market. Of course, I'm not going. Sounds dull. Also, people.

        Something JP is probably right about... Gender differences in agreeableness help explain part of the effect. People who are less agreeable tend to fight for themselves more in negotiations.

        Only bad managers give raises to people who are aggressive or otherwise pushy. I've managed people and would always bypass unpleasant, pushy people for promotion, preferring people who cooperate and lift up others, not only themselves.

        Disagreeable people aren't necessarily aggressive or pushy. Here is some research showing links between lower agreeableness and higher income. Maybe they were given that money by bad managers idk... http://digitalcommons.ilr.cornell.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1025&context=cahrs_researchlink …

        Have you seen the Jordan Peterson V Cathy Newman (C4) interview yet? Iirc, there's a section of that interview in this issue.

        This makes much more sense than the wage gap.
