Activity 2- Equal Pay for Equal Work?

For this activity, please think about this issue of the gender pay gap carefully. It is quite controversial (some people agree with it and some people disagree with it).

On your blog, tell us what you think. Is it fair? Why or why not? Be sure to explain exactly why you feel the way that you do.

In my opinion I believe it is unfair for the Black Ferns to be less paid than the All Blacks because they're all the same. Female athletes should be paid the same amount of money of male athletes because they're all doing the same thing and overall just have something in common that they love and enjoy. The fact that the Black Ferns are being paid for playing rugby is really sad to hear and I hope whoever is in charge reflects on this.
