The pay difference is because a lot of older women in the workforce started when it wasn't as common for women to go to college. Add to that the fact that taking a few years off to raise kids is something women do that men don't (anyone who stops working for years at a time is going to be set back and make less than someone who continued working) and you have an explanation for the discrepancy.
