My specific situation is not important beyond the fact that I'm a guy so I am statistically going to work more hours and to devote more of my life to work as well as choosing my career based on income rather than any sort of life satisfaction than the average woman.

I’m not familiar with these statistics?
But it still wouldn’t matter because the compensation is still per hour, so you work more you make more. Women wa t the same compensation per hour, not more compensation for the same amount of work.
Your anger is exactly what women feel. Why do men get more for the same amount of work?

They don't. When you control for career choice and hours worked the pay gap disappears.
