That's like saying the illegal immigrants who cross Rio Grande are fully aware that they may die while doing so. So it is OK to let them die... they signed up for it. The point is that economic migrants often know they will be mistreat

I know plenty of American women who would be outraged at the suggestions that the reason there's fewer women in high paying tech jobs is because they enjoy better gender equality! That's some twisted logic there.
