No Matter How You Slice It, Men Do Better Than Women
An innovative new study of pay inequity between men and women looked at transgender employees in the workplace and found that women who become men (known as FTMs) do significantly better than men who become women (MTFs). MTFs in the study earned, on average, 32% less after they transitioned from male to female, even after the authors of the study controlled for factors like education levels. FTMs earned an average of 1.5% more. Former WOW employee Afsheen Family thought this might be of WOW Report interest since the World of Wonder-produced Sex Change Hospital premieres next Tuesday at 11PM on WEtv. And he was right. (Time)
