One final point about the study of sex differences with respect to employment: even empirically reliable sex differences seem small in comparison with differences in occupations, pay and benefits, employment settings (nonprofit or government vs. private sector), positions in upper and top management, and election to public office. The wage gap still hovers around 25%, and women constitute:

•

Only four Supreme Court justices in US history, three currently;

•

Only 20% of US Senate;

•

Only 19.3% of US House of Representatives;

•

Only 4% of CEOs of 500 largest US companies (Center for American Women and Politics, 2016; Catalyst, 2016).

It seems unlikely that differences in these tangible employment outcomes can be justified by measurable differences in abilities between the sexes. Other factors must be important as well.
