Sarah Silverman's idea to close the gender pay gap: Crowdfunding (USA Today)

Writer and comedian Sarah Silverman has an interesting idea on how to close the gender pay gap: crowdfunding.

She is mad about the "$500,000 vagina tax," so she's decided to "become a dude," in a PSA-style video where she pretends to prepare for gender reassignment surgery.

The video, produced with the help of the National Women's Law Center, is part of the Equal Payback Project and contains mature content. Published on YouTube on Oct. 8, it has 393,233 page views to date.
