    Default Women sports players being paid the same as men?

    Should they?

    Covering all sports - I think not. Women's sports are generally not as publicised as men's sports and therefore less money is made from it so the football teams etc cannot afford to pay the players the same wages.

    I don't get the same entertainment watching them, of course there is the big problem with the fact they don't recieve much in the way of advertising. That's only because there isn't enough general interest in watching womens sports as much as mens. I always find there isn't the competitive edge from past experience.

    It's about business and womens football is not a big one. Charlton got rid of there's and Doncaster Belles are struggling to stay afloat so they can't afford higher wages.

    under risk of being flamed, women's sports aren't as interesting, except obv. beach volleyball.

    Simple. Women are genetically weaker than me.

    We watch sports to see this strength being put to the test... and as men are stronger than women, it's obvious who we'll watch.

    They arent as popular, so less people buy tickets, so teams get less money, so players get less money
    Simple Economics.
    1. Jeremy 1129 up, 295 downA named based on the biblical name Jeremiah. Used as a name for children who are blessed with a large brain and/or penis. Also used as a replacement for "perfect".
    We had a child and it had a very large penis so we named it Jeremy.
