You and Sally, a classmate in your economics class, are discussing the problems with gender discrimination in the labor market. You both agree that men and women should be treated equally. Sally claims that the significant differences in the ratio of men to women in the market for construction workers, a relatively higher paying field, compared to grocery clerks, a relatively lower paying field, is abhorrent and a result of discrimination. Using the analysis you learned in your previous lecture, you respond: a. This is not necessarily discrimination. Construction work requires a lot of physical labor and women may not prefer it. Thus it could be the result of differences in gender preferences.
c. This is not necessarily discrimination. It could be the result of differences in ability.
d. I agree. This is due to customer discrimination.
e. I agree. Construction companies must be discriminating against women in order to pay their male workers more.
