Abstract
This paper utilizes 5 cycles of the General Social Survey in consecutive years from 2006 through 2010 to address the issue of differential wages amongst members of same-sex couples compared to their counterparts in different-sex couples. We find that men in gay couples have a measurable – but statistically insignificant – wage penalty compared to males in heterosexual relationships. A sizeable and statistically significant earnings premium exists for lesbians in same-sex couples.
