Even On eBay, Women Get Paid Less For Their Labor (sciencemag.org)

sciencehabit writes: Women in the United States are paid only 79 cents on the dollar compared with men doing the same job. But at least gender melts away in the digital economy of the Internet, right? Nope. A study of more than 1 million auctions on the online commerce site eBay finds that women receive consistently less money than men for selling the very same products. T: The oft-cited "cents on the dollar" claims, though, ought perhaps be taken with a grain of salt; it depends who's counting, and what.

Lovely MRA argument point there .. take a topic about women and try to redirect the conversation about men.
The link is about women (when identified) being bid lower than unspecified gender auctions.
