Selling ourselves short

We're raised to be caretakers and compassionate. We are "little mamas" from the time we can walk around and drag a baby doll with us. I'm talking about women.

Seems a study found that we sell ourselves short when it comes to making money, too, as we value relationships more than profit. It still doesn't counter the effect that having a penis makes when interviewing for jobs, though. Men often pay men more. Plain and simple. I have worked several jobs where that has happened. I would like to think that it isn't the case overall, but when we sell ourselves short, it doesn't help the cause.
