Sharing your salary with your peers?

Totally understand in the US people really frown on talking about your salary but honestly coming from Asia it helped me create benchmarks. And I never felt negatively about individuals (if there was negativity it was typically at the org)..

When I moved to the states, If asked by someone what I earned I’d tell them because I thought it might help empower them to know if they could stretch for more, also mainly they were younger female professionals reporting into me and I felt like giving them this transparency helped them not apologise for asking for more for themselves. So far I’ve seen it help tons of my juniors get more than they were going to shoot for but…What’s the general consensus? Is this seriously poor form? Is there a better way for me to help? Trying to be mindful of cultural differences!
