If women were paid more equitably, then Lilly Ledbetter would have received the correct compensation/promotions over the years. Women have historically made less than men. In a perverse way, I think it is helping to keep the unemployment rate among women lower than men in this recession. Companies can "outsource" to Americans by keeping the women (who make less) and eliminating the men.
