>"well, so-and-so now has two kids, so we should pay him more than x, who

This kind of sexist thinking was (is?) the rationale behind paying women
less than men for the very same job and it's a behavior we cannot

going on you need to speak up, because it will not go away and it will only
continue to have wider application.
