The Wage Gap, Women's Fault?

The New York Times recently had an interesting graph which illustrated the gender wage gap.  The graph brakes down wages by profession to show how women compare to men across professions.  While it is interesting to note the professions where women make more than men (special education teachers and postal clerks) versus those where the gap is the largest between men and women in favor of the men (largely in the medical sciences), I found it more intersting how Hannah Fairfield explained the gap by faulting women for their "personal choices"...read having children.  She also attributed part of the gap towards men having more experience and logging more hours...also read not making the "personal choice" of taking time off to have a baby or lossing work hours to take care of the baby.  Fairfield ignores the federal goverments statistics breaking down wages and the fact that single, childless women logging just as many hours as their male counterparts in the same professions are still experiencing  pay discrimination due to no fault of their own.
