I recently looked into it and the reasoning for this gap is because of the type of jobs. If they are getting paid less for the same positions it is because they didn't negotiate for better wages. Men are better at negotiated for wages than women are. It plays into how society tells women that they shouldn't be demanding and they end up not fighting for a better wage when they are able to negotiate their salaries or they straight up don't bring the same skills to the table.
Men and Women in the service industry specifically fast food industry get paid the same wages.
