It sounds like you believe it to be self-evident that pay equality was a problem in the past but not presently. What, to your mind, has made pay between the sexes equal in the last fifty years?
While I grant you that people have made the issue more visible, I don't see any reason to think pay somehow became equal. On the contrary, studies insist that the problem persists to this day.

I've made no such claim.
I do believe that there is not a significant disparity in pay or opportunity based on gender alone in the tech industry in the US today. That belief is based on my own experience, which is subjective, and therefore I wouldn't presume to tell others that they should share it.
