I'm not sure how this part can/will ever be addressed.
For the rest, I keep thinking the natural evolution of education and the workplace will eventually equalize things... then the reality of my naivety kicks in. I injure myself jumping back and forth on this fence.
My anecdotal example:
My wife has an advanced degree and works in a demanding, lucrative field where there is absolutely pay equity based on position. However, the dozen females (with PhD's - the base educational requirement) report directly to the lone male in this part of the chain, whose education stopped at a Masters degree. I don't know when/how/if that kind of thing ever changes.
