You know, I am 100% in favour of equal pay for equal work, but how come
I have never heard a complaint about the fact that Allstate will sell
car insurance to a woman for FAR less than to a man, in spite of the fact
they have equal driving records.  As far as I am concerned, this
"guilty until proven innocent" attitude of the insurance companies is
one of the worst kinds of sexism around, yet it is given the approving eye
of society.

Now this woman should win her suit and get her $1000 per month.
It's wrong that they should do this kind of thing.  At the same time they can
make up the money by charging women the same as men for insurance!
