Feminism stops when the USA Women’s Soccer Team stops suing because of the “Gender Pay Gap” which has already been debunked many times

Even those female reporters noticed there was something not quite adding up...

So just like the Tennis Grandslams, they want to be paid "equally" to the men, problem is the men play 5 sets, and the women only play 3 sets.

All the benefits, none of the responsibilities.

Same here, they ALREADY have the unequal benefit of being paid regardless of working, effectively paid leave/sick leave, while the men don't have that benefit.

Yet here she is demanding "equality" not by addressing the inequality for the amount of work done, but by looking at the only metric she sees as "inequality", the pay, and demands "an equal playing field".

So literally they want TWO benefits, while addressing NONE of the responsibilities of equality that would mean working harder to draw more audience and sponsorship, working longer, again to earn more, and working without job security.

Nope, just give me more benefits, and no responsibilities.

So much for half a century of campaigning for "equal pay for equal work", not it's just "gibs moar monies!"

The problem here is that thinking: field success = financial equity. They are planting seeds for market success down the line! That day will, unfortunately for Ms. Rapinoe, be long after her playing days. Can't blame her for trying a pay heist though.

It would be quite funny to see the arguments debunked in a courtroom where they cant cry and complain out of anything that they don't like hearing.

I really want to know how much Alex Morgan receives a year in comparison with her teammates.

It's it's, you received based in what you produce. Pretty sure Alex it's the highest payed in the team because her image sales more, generate revenue.

How can you be so greedy and flat out deceitful? No way this bs can work outside America.

i know the female football captain, but who's the girl in the red top ?

It's like women they're wrong but don't want to admit. Almost all the fucking time.

They already get paid a higher percentage compared to revenue. Now if they truly believed in the "Gender Pay Gap" and want equality the men would be getting paid even more then they already are.
