The frustrating thing about this is that the entire concept of salary negotiations is one of the prime causes of unequal pay between genders.
The entire culture of a company trying to offer you less than you're worth so that they can save a few pennies is disgusting.
There shouldn't be salary negotiations - people who do the same job should be paid the same salary. If you want to negotiate for extra vacation days or a signing bonus or whatever, fine, but not salary. Just pay people a fair salary and pay them the same.
The current salary negotiation setup is extremely detrimental to people and should be eliminated, not encouraged.
