> It seems a big factor was when women were simply willing to actually ask for what they're worth Women and men generally are paid equally based on experience, ability to complete work, etc. The problem, if you would call it that, is that women are way more likely to take off work to take care of children, etc. Which then causes a pay inequality (again, if you call it that).
