This is a tough topic because there are plenty of examples were equalizing pay based on gender doesn't make a lot of sense. Which goes both ways. The guys on Scandal shouldn't be making as much money as Kerrie Washington (disclosure, I don't watch scandal but I am guessing that is right from the shows commercials).

However, no reason why Jennifer Lawrence shouldn't be making as much money as the guys in American Hustle.

The fact is the people who are the draws should be paid in a way that reflects that deciding who is the draw is not a science and people often use racist and sexist assumptions to make those decisions in a way that hurts POCs and women.
