Honestly the $.77 on the dollar figure is false and a horrible argument. It’s been shown in numerous studies that women tend to take less pay for better benefits, while men tend to take higher pay, but lower benefits. If you include benefits it is about $.91 on the dollar. That $.09 can also be explained by the fact that men tend to negotiate more often for higher pay, while women negotiate much less.
