Well that makes the inequality OK then?

Didn't the women's team agree to a shittier contract? Where everyone was guaranteed a set amount instead of taking in a (at times fluctuating but often still larger) percentage of whatever total they brought in.


The women's team's case was thrown out because 1: they actually made MORE money than the men's team, and 2: they were initially offered the exact same contract as the men and negotiated one with a higher base pay for benched players and better benefits in exchange for a smaller bonus. THEN, after bitching about sexism, and AFTER having their case thrown out, they were offered the men's contract again and turned it down AGAIN. Eventually they settled on a "profit sharing' system with the men's team which, in practice, means the men's team loses like half of their bonus to the women.

So let's not talk about "inequality" when it comes to Women's soccer.
