Me Too!

This has always been fascinating to me, because even in female dominated industries like nurse practitioners, men make more than women! And it's always chalked up to the whole 'women are taught to take what they can get so they don't ask for more' thing. I also wonder if it makes a difference who is doing the hiring: a man or a woman, or both if more than one person is involved.

Are men better at negotiating for a higher salary, or are sexists better at granting a man a higher salary following any quality of negotiation?

I’d love to see a study where a man and a woman approached salary negotiation word-for-word identical, and see who got afforded more.
