Equitable pay = Equitable job security
Look at any unemployment chart since 80's and women have better job security than men. And the difference typically increases a lot in economic depression.

However we do live in a world where we have to prioritize because we each have finite time. The social issues of tech work will never be as dire as issues of poverty, child welfare or health care. Our privilege blinds us to this.

I hate this attitude. Well hate is not nearly a strong enough word for my sentiment, but I refuse to feel unearned guilt over somebody else not having what I have. I will work on improving my life and then they can work on improving theirs. I might have cared, once, but I have been hit in the head so much with attitudes like yours that I just don't care anymore.
Gratitude for something doesn't necessitate being blind to ways that thing could be improved.
