Even after controlling for education levels and work hours, a woman who took her husband’s name earns less €960 compared to €1156.
Probably because:
Despite the fact that other than their name choice the women were identical, the participants overwhelmingly described the woman who had taken her husband’s name as being more caring, more dependent, less intelligent, more emotional and (somewhat) less competent.

    Me

    I've started and/or run too many venture capital-backed software companies, plus one ill-fated food startup. 
    ​I blog in spurts, about all sorts of things. Pre-2017 posts are moved over from old platforms, so please excuse weird formatting and the loss of all comments. 
    Visit my daughter's site about Lyme disease too.
