Because "men are paid more than women" alone simply says NOTHING.
In the company I used to work there were HUGE salary differences between men with the same job title, and the difference sometimes could run up hundreds of euros. The main reason was that the better paid men negotiated their terms of employment WAY better than those that got paid less.
I suspect to see something very much alike here. Also, I would like to see the salary distribution within men and women, because I can almost certainly guarantee that some women are paid more than some men, but I don't think we will ever see that because that would destroy the entire "all men are paid more than women for no reason other than they are men" narrative some people are still trying to push, while it is related to a LOT of other things other than just pure gender.
BTW, if a salary difference is SUCH a big problem why stick with the companies who do this? Why not find employment somewhere else, or start your own company with better working conditions? It isn't like you are FORCED to work for Google or any other of the big corps in Silicon Valley if you don't like how they treat people there.
