Quote:
Players on the U.S. women's national soccer team say they are being discriminated against because they are paid less than members of the men's team.
Kessler said the women are paid between 28% and 62% less than men, depending on the kind of match.
The complaint lays out some compelling numbers. Men earn as much as $17,625 for an exhibition match against a top opponent, according to the court document, and get no less than $5,000 even if the team loses.

Its a shame but once Woman's soccer can generate the same TV ratings and ad revenue as Men's soccer, then they could bring up the discussion on being paid top dollar.
