abstract: 'Objectives
|
||||
|
||||
Prior research has repeatedly shown that parenthood affects employment
|
||||
|
||||
outcomes; mothers have, on average, lower wages and are less likely to
|
||||
|
||||
be hired than childless women. Some research indicates that this effect
|
||||
|
||||
of parenthood on employment outcomes is dependent on sexual orientation.
|
||||
|
||||
In particular, lesbian mothers might be treated more like childless
|
||||
|
||||
women by those making employment decisions. This article examines the
|
||||
|
||||
degree to which the lesbian wage advantage can be explained by lesbians
|
||||
|
||||
avoiding the motherhood wage penalty experienced by heterosexual women.
|
||||
|
||||
Methods
|
||||
|
||||
Drawing on 2000 U.S. Census data, this issue is first explored via
|
||||
|
||||
ordinary least squares regression equations that estimate the effect of
|
||||
|
||||
having a child present in the household on income. The Blinder-Oaxaca
|
||||
|
||||
method is then employed to decompose the earnings differential between
|
||||
|
||||
heterosexual and gay individuals.
|
||||
|
||||
Results
|
||||
|
||||
Results indicate that lesbians appear to experience a motherhood
|
||||
|
||||
advantage that increases their wages by approximately 20 percent.
|
||||
|
||||
Further, results support the notion that lesbians receive different
|
||||
|
||||
returns to the presence of children in the household than do
|
||||
|
||||
heterosexual women. Approximately 35 percent of the wage differential
|
||||
|
||||
between lesbians and heterosexual women is attributable to differences
|
||||
|
||||
in returns to child rearing.
|
||||
|
||||
Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
These findings have relevance for state and federal anti-discrimination
|
||||
|
||||
laws and work/family policies, as they provide further insight into the
|
||||
|
||||
role that gender, and gender-based assumptions, play in determining
|
||||
|
||||
employment outcomes.'
