Is Ann Romney Against Equal Pay for Women?

Credulous folks are still passing around this quote attributed to the wife of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney:

Why should women be paid equal to men? Men have been in the working world a lot longer and deserve to be paid at a higher rate. Heck, I'm a working mom and I'm not paid a dime. I depend on my husband to provide for me and my family, as should most women... and if a woman does work, she should be happy just to be out there in the working world and quit complaining that she's not making as much as her male counterparts. I mean really, all this wanting to be equal nonsense is going to be detrimental to the future of women everywhere.

Earth to credulous folks: read this.

No Ann Romney did not really say this. The story came from a website that writes fake news.
