Ladies, it's Time to Ask for a Raise. Well, unless you just started your job, and then perhaps you should chill out, OK? Damn, greedy. But the rest of us need to slip into our GSD pants (opposite of eating pants) and march straight to the boss person's office and GET PAID as if the economy — and our shoe closets* —…

I think it's fairly cut-and-dried that the inclusion of women in traditionally male-dominated fields is a step forward for gender equality. It's good when people get to do stuff! Down with segregation! Up with people! But it turns out, in a backwards way, that gender-integrated workplaces might actually be a hindrance…

The YWCA in New Zealand has come up with a unique way to bring attention to the gender pay gap. For one day only, the organization set up a coffee cart on the lawn of Wellington's Victoria University Law School campus and sold coffee drinks at different prices based on gender, with men being charged 10% more than…

So, some people did an experiment with some monkeys. This gets important for feminism later on. First the researchers let the monkeys hang out for a while and become monkey-friends. Then they put two monkeys in cages, side by side, and they had the monkeys perform a simple task (hand a pebble to a researcher) in…

Lady surfers are coming up. They're fast, strong, creative, and "challenging the notion that big-wave riding is the exclusive domain of danger-craving men." Cool.

Everybody sit down. The United States is not number one in the world when it comes to something. I know, it's crazy. According to the Oct 23 2012 Global Gender Gap Report from the World Economic Forum, we're only 22nd best in gender equality, right after Canada and before Mozambique. And since the United States…

In a surprising twist, female Editors-in-Chief make less money than their male counterparts — about $15,000 less. I know, you're so shocked you just threw up on your petticoat or ate ice cream from the container or whatever it is women do when they're mad. Myself, I'm contemplating becoming hysterical and breaking…

Despite what some faithless Bloomberg opinion writers believe, the gender pay gap is too a real thing and it really needs to disappear. Like several decades ago. Women in the workforce, on average, still earn a mere 77 cents for every dollar men earn, even if they're performing the exact same tasks as men. Like…

If you didn't have your pesky ladyparts holding you back, you'd probably be rich right now. Well, richer. Behold, a chart explaining just what you could do with the extra $10,000 or so the average working man makes over the average working woman per year.

In her new book, The Richer Sex, Liza Mundy — who also wrote this week's TIME cover story — describes a future where women are the first (and wealthier) sex, not the second. She argues that the next generation of women will out-earn their husbands, since they already hold more college degrees and managerial jobs; it's…
