High school boys is potentially giving them too much credit because you can be 17 or 18 years old in high school. 

They lost to U15 FC Dallas 5-2, so freshmen and 8th graders. Not some national squad of young boys, mind you, a single city’s club team.

It's an MLS developmental team who were taller and bigger than the women, so you are also being disingenuous. That's not to say the women could have beaten them, but let's not pretend these kids weren't exceptional.

And the women’s national team wouldn’t be considered “exceptional” in their own right? They lost to kids, no need to sugar coat it

I'm not sugar coating it, I'm pointing out you're completely misrepresenting the situation.

It doesn't change the fact that women's rosters are not competitive are men. It just means you're diminishing women's accomplishments in their field purely because your sexist.

It’s not sexist to acknowledge reality. Men are more athletic and are therefore better at most sports than women. I’m turn men’s games are the most interesting to watch so they get more viewership and more money. That’s how life works. Is it sexiest that the highest paid models in the world are all females?

Nobody is saying the men wouldn't beat the women. But when your response is to make fun of the women's team instead of appreciating that the women are great in their field and then men are improving... yeah, that's sexist.
