I think the argument is the other way around: fields that women prefer pay less, ie. the field pays less because women prefer it.

I don’t share that argument, I just wanted to point it out.

Or alternatively, men prefer careers because they pay more, regardless of other criteria, so they choose high paying fields more often.
