“The idea that women don’t ask for pay raises in the same way men do is seductively plausible … It is also, quite simply, not true”
Photo-Illustration: by Stevie Remsberg; Photos Getty Get That Money is an exploration of the many ways we think about our finances — what we earn, what we have, and what we want. At the time, I was twenty-one years old and working an entry-level job in marketing when I realized I’d taken on far more responsibility than my $30,000 salary warranted.
I’ll go out on a limb here and say it: I’m a good negotiator. Coupled with the fact that I’m currently writing a memoir about my relationship with money, it’s become something of a specialist subject for me, and I regularly field questions from other women about how to make their case when negotiating salaries or freelance rates.
Unlike other studies that have been carried out in this area, the Do Women Ask? researchers had more detailed data that revealed a crucial fact: Women are far more likely than men to work in jobs where salary negotiation isn’t necessarily possible, such as low-skilled hourly wage jobs or part-time roles.
Depressing as these statistics are, in a way I also find them weirdly satisfying, given that they challenge the idea that women are at least partially to blame for wage inequality as a result of their actions . They also reveal an uncomfortable truth about society’s propensity to assign blame to women for situations outside their control.
