I'm confused. Does the average young, single, childless woman earn more than the average man, or more than the average young, single, childless man?

- zacharycohn 16y agoPart of the article says that "the median full-time salaries of young women are 8% higher than those of the guys in their peer group." Assuming that the article was written well, I would assume that they are referring to the average young, single, childless man.
- jbooth 16y agoWomen have a higher average education level, too, though. I wonder what the number is if you normalize for education, say stratify it into male vs female for some college, bachelors, master's, etc. Might be interesting. But probably a way less attractive headline.
