The gender pay gap and shorter work life may be the reasons, but women make better returns.

South Africa has significantly higher levels of female unemployment and around 50% of mothers are raising their children alone, with only around 20% receiving regular support from the father.A male friend of mine who works in the financial industry is very disparaging about the focus on women and money.
