What would be the effect of equal pay between genders on the employment rate of women? - eviltoast

I heard about a lot of companies who hire women specifically so they can pay them less.

That make me wonder, in a perfect world where there is no pay gap, what would be the effect on woman employment rate.

Would companies hire equal percentage of workers from both genders or would something else happen?

    Different roles would still attract different genders because of factors like fewer women in Tech and Engg, unconscious biases, etc
