About: Gay wage gap

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The gay wage gap is the pay gap between homosexuals and heterosexuals. Studies have shown that gay men, when including the unemployed, but not when excluding them, earn less than their heterosexual counterparts, whereas lesbians earn more ("lesbian wage premium"). This open discrimination is well documented in both gay friendly countries as well as those that openly discriminate against gay men (e.g. China and Saudi Arabia). People who are openly lesbian, gay, bisexual, and/or transgender experience socioeconomic disadvantages.
