WHY are professions that are usually predominantly female paid less than those seen as mainly male? There was a time when there was a separate females' pay scale for the same job, so it's not surprising that valuable, qualified jobs, such as nursing, had low pay compared to a male dominated field like construction, and in times of collective bargaining and decreased Union clout, that has never been redressed.
