You're hilarious. You bring up soccer as if it's a smoking gun. The USWNT, which
is the best in the world, routinely loses to 15 year old boys. Don't try to tell me that their program surpasses the men's program. You're arguing about how oppressed women are. The fact that our women are the best in the world is a perfect example of how much better our women here have it than in the rest of the world. Women here have been afforded opportunities (which I applaud) that women in other countries only dream of. That's why they win. Not because they are better soccer players. Not because they are more athletic. Our men are playing against the best athletes in every country and against programs that have done nothing but promote men's soccer since soccer was invented. Our team for the most part has what's left after football, basketball, and even baseball take the best athletes.

Oh and as for tennis: "Venus and Serena Williams had claimed that they could beat any male player ranked outside the world's top 200, so Braasch, then ranked 203rd, challenged them both. ... He first took on Serena and after leading 5–0, beat her 6–1. Venus then walked on court and again Braasch was victorious, this time winning 6–2."

Again, I'm not arguing against women having opportunities. I'm completely in favor of it. But when you want exciting athletics, you go to the most exciting athletes. Very rarely is that a female athlete. Not never; but very rarely. Again, MILLIONS of people around the country vote every day on who is worth their entertainment $$.

Not misogyny. It's not anti-women any more than it is anti-high school boys to say that they aren't as exciting as elite athletes.
