Fair point. In this respect, I agree (sorta). Gender equality can't exist in most sports because of the physical difference between men and women, but women should be paid a living wage. If men's football generates more money, then I do think they should get paid more. They get more money after all.

It frustrates me so much that people think that female footballers should get the same pay as men.

Why are we turning a popularity issue into an equaliy issue?

No, The women’s world cup winners don’t deserve the same prize money as men world cup winners. Why should they? Men’s world cup 2018 generated $5,279,000,000 more than the 2019 women’s world cup and that number will probably increase depending that the 2022 mens world cup generated 7.5 billion.

But yeah, gender equality!!!!!

comments (single view)

The reason why men football is more popular than women is the fact that it’s way higher quality, and fans want to see that.

USAWNT lost to some 15 year old boys one time.

So what? They are competing at the highest level, have won 4 world cups, and the US Women's Team that you mentioned generate more money for the country than the US Men's team! (This is despite them being paid LESS very recently)

I’ve already destroyed your argument on “women’s team got paid less despite making more from 2016-2018” so won’t bother replying to this either
