Can someone who isn't an edgy teen from /pol/ or /b/ please rationally and logically explain to me why women don't get paid the same as men in literally every sport (other than tennis of course)? And don't give me MUH SUPPLY AND DEMAND argument because women's football is as popular as ever and the only reason men's sport is so popular is because of the exposure it gets from the authorities which is and has traditionally been male-dominated.

Anyone who isn't a complete idiot, and has spent more than 5 minutes doing their research will know that women are slightly more intelligent than men are overall. Also, there is NO evidence that men have better spatial awareness or hand-eye coordination. Women are technically equal to men in terms of ability and talent, that much is obvious. Just look at the Williams sisters in tennis, Ronda Rousey in MMA the list is endless. IF somehow women were given the same strength and physical power as men then they would be their equals (if not superiors) in EVERY. SINGLE. SPORT. The only difference is in strength, and in the modern day that gap really isn't that great and doesn't have any effect on how viewers see the sport, it only matters in terms of men vs women which will never happen. Women compete against women and men compete against men, no problems there.

So without being an edgy "women should be in the kitchen!! make me a sandwich" retard, try rationally and logically explaining why the sports authorities actively oppress and limit women and the women's game.

Why should Wayne Rooney get paid £250k a week when women, who are actually better footballers than him, struggle to earn £250k a year despite doing the exact same job?

Yes because the world has been forced to watch men's sport for 50 years so naturally they think it's the norm and when women's sport comes on TV they aren't interested because it's new.

Because men are smarter and for snooker they have better spatial awareness.
>>
>>67651311
Wayne Rooney's payment is relative to the revenue he generates.
If the EPL generates billions of pounds in revenue, then that wealth trickles down into the teams and players, infrastructure etc.

There is no issue of gender equality.
The only issue is the equality of the product and the revenue it generates and, as an example, you can look at womens' vs. mens' fashion, where earnings and roles are reversed.
Or even porn.

I hope the above has helped you figure a few things out about the world you live in.
>>
>>67651605
Because 95 % of chess, poker and snooker players are men
>>
>>67651605
They're not though. That's the point.

The reason you wrongly assume they are the best is because of the sheer exposure the men's game gets, the prize money they get and the media coverage.

Sport isn't fair. There's still a lot of work to be done in actual workplaces in terms of equality but not in sport. It's inherently an unfair occupation since you need to be genetically superior to succeed. Why should shorter men be excluded from basketball? One could bring up so many examples

You can't force fairness in an unfair world. Athletes make up a minute proportion of the world's workforce. It's more important that we get more women into science, tech, management etc because that's where they're really missing out

True. However, there are more men at the extreme levels (both low and high) which is why the smartest people in the world are mostly men,

>despite doing the exact same job

They aren't doing the exact same job. Women soccer players are significantly slower and weaker than their male counterparts, thanks to basic biological differences (look up male and female records for weightlifting, running, jumping, and swimming to see what I'm talking about). This leads to a much slower-paced game, which is far less interesting and draws fewer viewers and in turn a lower amount of revenue from sponsorship, which is what leads to lower pay.

When men play against women in an actual game, the differences become very obvious:

USA Men's U17 vs USA Women's National Team: 17-year old boy won, 8-2

Stuttgart U16 vs German Women's National Team: 16-year old boys won, 3-0

AIK U16 vs Swedish Women's national Team: 16-year old boys won, 3-0, despite only having 10 players on the field


If top-level women players can't even compete with mediocre underage male players, why on earth do they deserve to get paid the same amount?
>>
>>67651705
My opinion on the skill level of each sex at chess is based on the world rankings of a sport where both sexes are free to compete.

Your opinion is based on nothing.

Which sex has the greater chance of making the top 10, 20, or 100 in the world rankings:-

The men who are encouraged every day, have role models, sponsorship deals, and make up 99% of the world's chess players in total.

Or women who are told chess is a man's game and have to fight tooth and nail to get involved and play at a competitive level and are made to feel as if they are complete outsiders?

Women are no worse than men. It's all about how the situation is framed. Context is key.

shit bait but i'll entertain it.

Because they arent paid to be athletes, they are paid to be entertainers. Thus you get paid by how much money you bring into the sport from sponsors, ticket sales etc.

Womens sports are simply not as popular as mens sports therefore they dont deserve the same pay.

Also, male sports needed literally almost a hundred years to become popular enough so that their star players could make millions from it. Women want that after only a few decades, which is the definition of entitlement.

Not enough people watching women's football because Most fans, (men) would rather watch men instead play.

It's less often for women to really watch sports or be as dedicated. Maybe you should try to get more women to watch female sports and possible it could be even more big than male sports!

Dartboards and snooker/pool tables are exlusively in pubs, another "male-only" space as designated by the media.

If I ever have a daughter I would push her to play chess etc. But at the same time, thats enough from me, its time for women to step up and break barriers. Its happened in UFC for example. They have no one to bllame but themselves, they need to enlighten themselves, and protest this, and I don't mean this BS tumblr femminism shit, but rather show interest into these things on their own accord and be self aware. I've done my part in an oath to raise my daughter to be open minded.

I ll talk about football:

No TV Rights for women's football, since i doubt there are any channels showing womens football. Even if there is a channel showing, i bet they get no more htan 1-2% the attention a mens football match gets.

They are not so famous - so far less extra wages from commercials etc. Women will buy something if the model wearing/using it is hot, thinking it will make them look beautiful. Men like to think of the whole successfull idea so male sportsmen have a nice body and reputation so they are legit.

3rd : we live in a patriatric society where most women actually enjoy being the weaker gender. Yes you ( to the girls who will reply "I DONT DO THAT YOU FASCIST PIG") as a gender enjoy having your dinner paid, having a strong man who "does whatever he wants at me" in bed, think of money as a criteria for a possible future relationship (at a "thinking of starting a family age"), so quit whining. The majority does.

Also to the whole women are better than rooney stuff. Its much harder to become someone as popular and as sccessfull as rooney in mens football, so I doubt he is worse than whoever you had in mind.

Fair enough mate, but there's only so much you can do as a parent.

Men who oppose women infiltrating/changing their interests don't realise how necessary it actually is to change a global mindset.

Because women's soccer (footy) is literally the Americans dominating and winning at every level (senior, olympics, U21, U19, etc.) and it isn't entertaining anymore except to Americans.

That's personally why I stopped watching the women's game because my countrywomen have already won everything.
>>
>>67652583

Also I thought of another one.

Most sports were "invented" - "became popular" in the 1700-1800-1900s I guess. Those years, women were just as you said" for hte kitchen - non stop teatime with them gurls etc. Only men played. By the time they decided let women play sports professionally , the men sports had probably became globally recognized. This difference probably exists until now.

Wew lad

>men's sport is so popular is because of the exposure it gets from the authorities which is and has traditionally been male-dominated.
Men's sport is more popular because men are better athletes than women, creating a more marketable game

>Just look at the Williams sisters in tennis, Ronda Rousey in MMA the list is endless.
what is Karsten Braasch. Ronda would get her ass handed to her by any man in her weight class

>Why should Wayne Rooney get paid £250k a week when women, who are actually better footballers than him, struggle to earn £250k a year despite doing the exact same job?
sorry but no woman is 1/52ndth the footballer Rooney is, and I think he's a fucking chimp

Fact of the matter is Women's sport will always be behind men's, you can't justify paying women more because they genuinely do have less talent. But women can't get more talented unless the salaries become more competitive. It's a catch-22 I know but it's a fact

Personally I don't watch women's sport because the quality is so piss poor, there's no point in watching it when I can watch men do it better. I doubt this view will ever change within my lifetime
>>
>>67652601
You have come to the heart of the issue really. Women will not only be ridiculed for their mistakes, they will also be ridiculed because they are women. 'see, i told you they can't play football!' nobody says: see, men can't do ballet! When a male dancer slips on stage. Women not only have to overcome a comparison to men but also the very fact that they are women. That doesn't mean they deserve to make the same amount of money in a sport that earns way less but it is something to consider next time you make fun of female athletes.

You're right. Lets abolish female/male discrimination in sports altogether. Single, gender-less league.

If we allow women to play in men's leagues then we also have to allow men to play in women's leagues. So, the only fair solution is to forbid single-gender only leagues - or better yet, sports in general.
>>
>>67652805
>They are not inferior in brain or training
Go check the records for olympic shooting(a sport where strength is irrelevant) women are still shittier
>>
simple answer:

because sports income isn't determined by who "deserves" what, but where the market is. simple supply and demand. people want to watch men's sports, so that's where all the money ends up going. female athletes would make more if people cared, but they don't have a reason to care.

it's synonymous to that stupid argument about how athletes make more money than soldiers. it doesn't matter about the content of the job, it's where the money is flowing. if nobody watched it, nobody would make any money off it.

>>67653765
Well, most women won't care about a man who's lower in status that matters in work, ie. has a lower school degree or is in a lower position at work, which will typically lead into women getting attached to a richer spouse. It's an extreme rarity to see a female doctor seriously dating a male nurse but roles reversed and it's not something anyone would think twice about.

Also it's no surprise to anyone that rich, famous men get pretty much unlimited amount of cunny when no one would care about them one bit if they'd just be ordinary people walking on the streets. Case in point: Justin Bieber.

Because they produce less value by selling tickets, drawing TV ratings, and moving merchandise.

In the few sports where they do produce similar value (Tennis), they get paid equally. When they produce more value than men (Beach Volleyball), the women make more money.

I'm not going to go into every reason, but men's sport will always be more popular than women's mainly because people want to see the highest level of play possible, and men are OBJECTIVELY physically better than women in every possible way. This cannot be argued. Minor League sports are not watched for the same reason; people want to see the best. We lose interest otherwise.

My girlfriend likes watching women's football. Although I don't know why and she is the minority. Any time I've seen them play they've been an absolute shambles. No even unskilled, slow and frail, just doing stupid shit like punting the ball at each other instead of passing to.

Literally every school runs sports for girls, and there's plenty for adults too. They have every right to play it, but who guvesca fuck that they do? I dont go to the park to watch 13 year old Callum, Ted and Dave have a kickabout. I don't even go to see my local non league or league 1 sides because they're trash and it isn't particularly enjoyable to watch.

You shouldn't expect to be paid if you're no good at it.

Not him but women technically are better at extreme long distance running. Their bodies are built to withstand the strain better than men, I think it has something to do with the widened hips. But of course that would never get sponsored and broadcast, lel.

Men still have better marathon times...

What the fuck is extreme long distance...

Are we talking a 3 day run across the country of kenya or something?

Where's the call for more women in sanitation, coal mining, Alaskan fishing, construction, roofing, etc?

And men suck at it compared to women, so get fucked. You're wrong.

Yes, that's basically what I mean. If you were to give men and women EXTREMELY long running distances, and both were trained to do it, a trained woman would theoretically have the upper hand.

The psychology of women in general does not encourage competitiveness as much as men's, at least not in a physical way. This is just nature, biology, whatever you want to call it. Now most spectator sports are just entertainment in a way, and players are paid in relative relation to how much revenue they can generate, and a competitive match is more entertaining to watch. You may argue that gender role or social expectation adds to the equation, end of the day this is the world we live in, and where we are didn't come from nowhere.
