Just curious, I haven't taken statistics, but instead of solely hating rich white men and assuming complete racism/sexism in our society...
...Can't it be because women are less likely to be ambitious for higher positions in general, and in this instance, latino women -- aren't they more likely to work for lower wages/be content with doing lower paying types of jobs because its just accepted within the American-Mexican culture, to work those jobs to support their family, especially if they are newly immigrated?
Would it increase if they weren't content with those jobs?
If they obtained an education/degree and sought after higher paying positions/positions of power, would they still have that enormous inequality?
