Others said the pay gap "myth" has been "debunked" and that women do receive equal pay, when maternity leave, time in the workforce and other factors are taken into account.Another posted a poll, revealing that the majority of those that responded to the poll believed that the pay gap was a myth.stop trying to be a victim #youhaveequalpay @EqualPayDay

Another common response was from those who took the opportunity to reference Gadot's Israeli background, asking if she also believes in equal rights for Palestinians.I'm getting mixed responses from the men here. Do you think there a gender gap?
