Can we get back to the point?

Everyone (here) agrees that women should be paid the same as men for doing equal work (If anyone argues, say so now or forever rest your peace.)

Everyone agrees the “Gloria Steinhiem” movement is bad, and burning items of clothing movement is Assur (due to Tznius if nothing else).

Everyone agrees Chazal are NOT infallible, neither are Malachim for that matter (e.g. Hashem killing the Sar Shel Yam due to him rebelling (BB 74B)).

Everyone agrees that Chazal have additional insight into all things, both Torah and not, due to their additional connection to Hashem through his Torah. That does not mean they can’t be wrong, but its not for us puny people to say so (leave that to the Rabbonim).

Whether women should work out of the home is a Machlokes HaPoskim of today, follow your own Rav, but both points of view are legit.

Everything else is semantics.
