This is because when you, a Lady Author, go to a school, you are performing Women’s Work, which pays poorly. On the other hand, when I do literally anything having to do with children, I am going above and beyond my Man’s Role and need extensive recognition and compensation.

Me, goes to school, does author presentation, often free of charge, the library doesn't even have my book, parents never learn I even came. Dude author, goes to same school, huge welcome banner, school plasters photos all over socials, does big book signing, fawning!! This happens so, so often.
