As a result of the passage of the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, have the overall earnings for women become roughly comparable to that of men?

No. In spite of the passage of the Equal Pay Act and Title VII, statistics on the overall earnings for women in comparison to men show that the median level of earnings for women is 76.9 percent of the median income for men. It is asserted that the reason is that a large proportion of working women are employed in certain predominantly female occupations, such as nursing, secretarial work, and social work, that have significantly lower pay scales relative to other occupations where men are dominant. However, the Equal Pay Act has been successful in remedying pay disparity between men and women performing the same work for their employer.
