content: Actually I think her story is a good case of "yeah let women do whatever they want too". She worked as a miner for 10 years, pretended to be a man because women weren't allowed in the mines, she busted her ass and got rich, everyone believed she was a man at the mines until five years after she quit and got married. It sounds like she stopped working at the mines because a bunch of miners were accused of rape, she revealed her sex to prove her innocence, so she had to stop working. Usually the wage gap shit is brought up to ignore most mining company workers are women choosing to be office staff, not miners, she became a miner and did great. I mean, this is in Tanzania, which I know just about nothing about, but I guess over there, they still refuse to let women work in some occupations? TIL.
