It might help if it were not frowned upon to admit that women and men are different, and that isn't a bad thing. Male nurses are still a rarity, and that's ok (though, all nurses, regardless of sex, should get paid more). Different doesn't mean better or worse, just different. Is a frog better than a toad? Well, what situation are you asking about? Are women better than men? Well, what situation are we talking about? (And, yes, I just compared men and women to frogs and toads, because no hidden reason whatsoever...)

Registered nurses, at the median in SF, earn about $133k a year (check US News "Best Jobs" for a roundup of regional BLS data).
I'm absolutely OK with nurses earning good salaries but I do think people are often surprised to hear how much nurses actually do earn.

That is significantly better than I thought =) I'll dial back my disappointment, a bit.

Male nurses still make more on average than female nurses:

It would help to stop with the strawmen. Feminists don't say men and women are not different at all, they say that the gender roles are based on cultural factors more than biological ones.
