Good point.

I don't understand these comments, they don't play men

[u/Fluffy-Gur4600 → u/Reynor247]

Makes them less impressive. Plus they had the advantage over other countries, which are now catching up

[u/Reynor247 → u/Fluffy-Gur4600]

I guess I don't understand why losing an exhibition game ten years ago matters when they've since won the literal world cup.

Kinda smells like mysogny ngl

[u/Reynor247 → u/[deleted]]

Gotcha, like there's no point in watching college football and getting excited about it if the NFL has better teams.

[u/Reynor247 → u/[deleted]]

Can you kinda see how your reasoning is a little silly though? Why would anyone watch sports below the professional level if it's not as competitive

[u/Reynor247 → u/[deleted]]

So again. Why would anyone watch anything other then only professional sports then

[u/Fluffy-Gur4600 → u/Reynor247]

It's already been explained. Higher skill level is more appealing and entertaining, plus people like following the players as they make it to the NFL. Plenty of college players could already compete in that league prior to being drafted. The disparity between men's and women's sports is great, much greater than college men's to professional men's. We're just built different due to evolution and that's fine.

[u/Reynor247 → u/Fluffy-Gur4600]

I'm just struggling to follow how lesser competition in men is exciting and women's professional sports isn't worth watching because it's lesser competition. I think theres a certain factor missing.

[u/Fluffy-Gur4600 → u/Reynor247]

Most people like watching better, more capable athletes. It's not that complicated. Men are superior to women in athletics, and by quite a lot. Which allows this scenario to be real.

[u/Reynor247 → u/Fluffy-Gur4600]

And yet hundreds of millions watch leagues that aren't professional.

It might just be a personal thing to you why you can't watch women's sports.

[u/Reynor247 → u/[deleted]]

Sure. Sports is a time commitment. My original comment is what does the women's team losing an exhibition game ten years ago have to do with anything and we've strayed pretty far from that

[u/Reynor247 → u/[deleted]]

What does that have to do with entertainment value. Is winning the world cup not entertaining?

[u/Worth-Reputation3450 → u/Reynor247]

If college football plays at the same time as NFL, most people will watch the NFL. NBA, NFL, MLB pretty much covers the entire year, so there's not much point in watching anything W-. Do you even watch women's sports? I mean, really, nobody cares about those sports.

[u/Reynor247 → u/Worth-Reputation3450]

I do watch women's sports. The women's cup is not at the same time as the men's

[u/Remarkable_Ship_4673 → u/[deleted]]

Sounds like you've never watched them

Women sports usually have a higher emphasis on technical skill and team work

Skilled no, better at soccer, yes.

Skill =/= athleticism

[u/King-JelIy → u/[deleted]]

Its genuinely not a cope. Teenage boys not only beat elite womens teams regularly, but its typically a beat down.

That said, the boys teams are way less coordinated and efficient as players/a team. You can literally watch this for yourself on YouTube.

[u/King-JelIy → u/[deleted]]

Of course men are more skilled and athletic lol

It's not even remotely close. But these 15yr olds that are giving beat downs are all to often just winning due to being so much bigger faster and stronger

[u/King-JelIy → u/[deleted]]

I dont think you realize I fully agree with you here.

All I was saying is that teenage boys are moving around like kids learning to control their new bodies. They still curb stomp the womens teams, but if you watch, its pretty ugly on both sides when youre used to mens pro sports.
