IMO D

have is wrong in a,b,c
Discrimination is singular.


(E) paid in predominantly male occupations over the predominantly female has

over the predominantly female does not clearly refer to the wages
Cheers !!

Quant 47-Striving for 50

My Pick : E
ABC - out for SV-Agreement.
In D -- Favors ( Singular) modifying discrimination and distorting the meaning of sentence.
