If female soccer players want earnings that are the same as male soccer players, then they need to ensure their league earns the same money for viewership, sponsorship, merchandising and so on. Then the players need to negotiate fair terms for themselves.

There is no entitlement to equal earnings, equal viewership, equally compassionate league owners etc. just because one is a woman as these wacky social justice types seem to think. What's next? Equalizing Taylor Swift to the Rolling Stones? Dr. Phil to Oprah??
