Yeah. Y'all are missing the fuck out of the point. If the most famous women in the world do not get paid equitably, what chance have the ones working three jobs to accumulate 25k? Additionally, the exact same basic cause is at play in both situations -- the oft-cited unwillingness to "drive a hard bargain" for fear of being labeled a so and so by the men they're bargaining with.
