Seems like that kills the hypothesis that women are making better career decisions across the board optimizing for pay.
Science does not simply pay poorly, the job also sucks.
Being a scientist requires vastly more education, and long periods of low pay. I actually know a programmer that switched to nursing and he seems reasonably content.
If you can't convince anyone what your doing is important it should make you stop and reconsider your efforts.
In any case my point about science is that playing politics is MORE important than delivering quality results. In my lab as a grad student, there was a grad student who delivered extremely sketchy data and then won the grad student of the year award and now he's a tenured professor at a top 50 US research institute.
