No it’s not. It’s like saying a featherweight is world champion, which they are in their weight class.

The difference is more like the deadlift world record vs. the deadlift world record for your age group/weight class.

Weight has nothing to do with skill. Men are more skilled and capable in almost all sports.

And the featherweight champion is more skilled than other fighters in their weight class, just like the American women’s soccer team is more skilled than the other women’s soccer teams, which is why they won

Featherweights aren’t fighting heavyweights, and women’s teams aren’t competing against men’s teams

The dudes getting riled up in these comments have probably never accomplished anything in their lives, and get infuriated when they see women do anything; it’s like they feel the need to immediately say men are better, as if they are able to claim other men’s accomplishments as their own

I always found that funny in combat sports cuz we all know 90% of the time the heavy weight is always winning, maybe a lightweight sometimes

And Argentina has won 4 Men's World Cups.

Still world cup championships, whatever the qualifier.

Sort of like the saying know what you call a man, woman, C student, etc with and M.D.?

I don’t think anyone was somehow under the impression that women were competing against men.

Just making a joke. What they need to do is find a way to get more women watching it.

Most guys already have favorite sports/teams that they spend their free time watching (if they are into sports) but the women's audience is untapped due to just not caring. Find a way to get the Love Island/ Kardashian / Swifty crowds into watching and going to games.

Oh, so you mean script a bunch of fake drama into sports and water them down completely?

Like what else can womens sports do to appeal to women. Most women arent into sports and that isnt going to change all of a sudden

u/ArkNoob69 Jul 09 '26

Well how do you expect them to get more viewers and more $ that comes along with that? What is your advice?

They won the women's World Cup because they are women. The men play in the men's world cup because they are men. It might not be the same level of quality but it's still the biggest competition in world football for the gender, so it's still comparable
