The male ego tends to push men to be more money oriented in their careers. They equate income with success.
Women tend to be more quality of life oriented than money motivated. They tend to pursue careers that offer more social rewards and personal satisfaction rather than just more money.
These are, of course, generalizations. There are plenty of men that do not consider money as their number one priority in their careers and there are women who are primarily driven by the desire for more money.
Best wishes.

I don't think it's safe to say that girls are smarter than boys (especially ones who spell it "bois"), and are you talking about how boys make more money, or are you saying girls do?
If you're saying boys (by that time commonly referred to as "men") do, well, that's simply because they are men. Many CEO's of companies feel that if a man is hired straight out of college, he is more likely to stick around than a woman is. Statistically, women leave their careers much more often than men do, to raise a family when the time comes, so the higher-ups tend to feel that a man is a little bit better an "investment" than a woman is. In individual cases, I don't know if it's that the higher-ups are just sexist (I think many of them are... they know they've always been able to pay women less and they can continue to do so) or if they actually consider this half-****** idea to be a justifiable reason to pay women less than men in the early stages of a career.
But I do not think it's fair to say that girls are smarter than boys in school. I clearly remember geometry, and I'm tellin ya, not a boy in my class had trouble with that subject, but even the most intelligent, well-spoken girls were barely holding on to their D+.
