So basically, she didn't want to do it for a variety of reasons, and freely decided not to.

How was anyone wronged here?

Depends if you think anyone is wronged by the gender pay gap, and whether (2) is one of the foundations of the gender pay gap.

Our supposedly free choices are mediated by circumstance. Even in this apology (and really, am I supposed to be impressed with hearsay from a single woman?) one of the reasons is "I didn't want to enter a discipline that was overwhelmingly male."
