Women in the workforce are set to earn more than men for the first time in history, according to new research.
The next generation of female employees in the U.S. will take home more money than their male peers across all sectors of employment.
The phenomenon marks such a cultural shift in the American way of life that author and journalist Liza Mundy used it as the basis for her book, The Richer Sex.
Ms Mundy’s research found that in U.S. cities, single women in their twenties with no children, on average make more than men, according to Time Magazine.
She wrote: ‘Almost 40 per cent of working wives out-earn their husbands’ – and this number was rising.
Over the next few decades, professions like law, medicine and veterinary medicine will be predominantly run by women.
