When men and women stay at the job the same amount of time, the women, not men are making more money.

So this whole thread is again of course total crap.
Perhaps you should talk to some women who were discriminated against before making that judgement.

I was paid substantially less than my male coworkers who were lower in the ranks simply because I was a woman. And yes, that was the only reason. I wasn't pregnant, nor in a relationship and put in more hours than my male counterparts. I didn't find out I was getting paid about 30% less until many years after quitting. Turns out, there may be a lawsuit brewing with quite a few women who worked at that company and experienced the same thing. So, I'm quite happy that this legislation was passed.
