December 2024

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Gay wage gap, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you.

@Materialscientist hello. my information cited census data. it looks like you are making edits so rapidly that you don't vet your decisions. Spinsterella (talk) 16:55, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! I noticed Materialscientist reverted your edits to Gay wage gap, per above, with an explanatory edit summary, and you then re-reverted with no explanation at all. That's not good practice. Please edit collaboratively. Bishonen | tålk 10:11, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

about wiki page of the family income situation of lesbian women.

Thank you for your recent contributions to the gay wage gap page. However, I read the newest ACS （2022）and found that the household income of lesbians is different compared to the 2020 ACS:

Same-sex married-couple households for gay couples：138,700 lesbian：111,100 heterosexual：109,700

Both Gay andLesbian married couples earn more than heterosexual couples.

@Snorgon111

oh! It was supposed to specify married couples (you were probably looking at female couples who are not married. they typically earn almost the same, with an average $2,000 higher than opposite-gender unmarried coupled families each year).The 2023 data is the most recent available, which found a median income of $124,900 for cis married couples, $141,900 for gay male married couples, and $113,000 for married female couples.

I will redo my edit, and make the clarification. Spinsterella (talk) 16:53, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, my IP is often blocked, so I cannot edit it myself. Thank you for the latest data! However, I still want to remind you that in ACS2023, 114300 is the income of heterosexual married couples. 124900 is actually the average income of married gay and lesbian couples. Snorgon111 (talk) 05:08, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Snorgon111 given their stark gap between their income and the separate causes for the disparity, it is better to make a distinction between male and female gay couples rather than generalize the average. Spinsterella (talk) 12:49, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
