Can't be arsed to dredge back through the whole thread but I'm pretty sure there are people arguing that it's inequality/discrimination if the women get paid less than the men. If there aren't then I must've got the wrong end of the stick somewhere, in which case I apologise. I think part of the trouble is that there are 2 or 3 separate discussion to be had and they all keep getting lumped into the same thing when they're not. The US women being paid more by their federation than the men is one of them, and that I fully support.
No need to appolagise, like you say it's been a meandering thread with several issues being lumped together. Some of us have argued that the money going into the women's game should be increased considering the amount in the FIFA reserves, but I don't think anyone on here has said the prize money should be equal to the men. I don't think any of the women's players have said that either.
