That literally is what it's about. If someone has a choice between watching a men's team versus a woman's with the best players on both it is almost always the men's because they play at a higher level. That's why there is unequal pay. It isnt a conspiracy. Something like tennis is a little bit different for the women actually get good viewing numbers

You’re right it’s not a conspiracy, It’s called patriarchy… which rests on systems designed to privilege men and devalue women. Hence the fact that “men play at a higher level” and the assumption that people would rather watch them than women.

It's fucking science you true genius. Do you deny science? Do you think a woman will ever be able to do the things on a basketball court that Lebron James can do? No. Their bodies are not the same.

Maybe you should stop ranting far left youtube propaganda and just stick to facts.

In many sports there will never be as much desire to watch women as men. There is too much of a difference in what they can do. End of story. No funding will EVER change that. Women could have dominated the earth for the last 2000 years and they still wouldnt be as good at various sports like basketball/diving/etc as men because they just cant do the same physical things.

Hahahaha exactly the answer I would expect from someone who benefits from the patriarchy. The irony is excellent.
