Can't find a link to the story itself...only video.

Talks of the pay gap between genders as well as the lack of proportionate representation of women in executive positions and board rooms.

And I came across this today, too:

1. I can't watch the video at work, but kick and

although seemingly a majority of Americans don't give two shits about pay disparity, it is a serious issue and indicative of deeply running social problems in this country that have not been addressed in our age of "post-everything" societies.

Feminism is not a dead issue, civil rights is not a dead issue, these things are still important and need our attention.

3. How can that possibly be a 'shock'? It's been that way for decades. Think back to the ERA

fight and women were making $.59 to every dollar a man made in the same position.
