The current equal pay system is too complex and hard to navigate.

"When women, lesbian women & some gay men started to realise what was at stake, anyone brave enough to speak up about women's & LGB rights was vilified, branded bigots, transphobes & TERFS. The most vocal in making these slurs were men, but sadly not exclusively so"
