Grand Slam tennis is equal pay despite 3 sets versus 5. Condescending to women but no outcry.In track and field I've yet to hear an outcry that decathletes perform in 10 disciplines as opposed to the heptathletes' 7. Men just get on with it.Women play from closer tees in club, never mind pro golf. Shorter boundaries and smaller ball in cricket.No outcry. Why? Thought they wanted ekwality?


I think the tennis thing is wrong but not absolutely sure of myself.

Track and field men get paid more.

Golf men get paid more.

Cricket men get paid more.

Basketball in the US is a good example where the male players are millionaires and the female players are paid very little accordingly,there's a repeated joke on US sitcoms when it comes to female basketball players 'They play in front of literally tens of people' which sums it up.

Prize money (not pay) is equal in four tournaments a year.

Have they for a second thought that they are basically piggy-backing on existing men's teams, grounds, infrastructure, coaching etc. Everything that took generations to build up.  All for free.

Of course they are apart from when they weren't allowed to.

'they deserve mens pay'  but the blokes don't deserve their pay either  ... the money it generates see they get 100x more than they're worth. Is a EPL footballer worth more than 50 plumbers or electricians ? ergo  if women's football generates huge interest in the future and becomes more popular than men's ,then they should get more pay then men


It really doesn't work like that in their little worlds though

They get to use all the mens training facilities, grounds, even have former legends of the mens game (who get forced to say) say how great womens sport is, even though its absolutely facking awful quality , and should anyone bring this up they are immediately attacked as "sexist pigs", you ain't allowed to question them

They piggy bag as pointed by the OP, on the mens game, get to use everything the men have built, and then scream they want the same pay as the men who generate all the money

The joke is on us by the way

Stick the men against the women in anything like Cricket, Football etc and they'd see for themselves

Except this wont happen they'll just carry shouting from afar, and should anyone call them out they are sacked or shot down as "sexists"

There's no debate to be had because they don't want to debate they just want to control

Who's been claiming women are as good as men at whatever sport? If anyone has apologies for missing it thought this was all about equal pay etc. for playing the same sports,due to biology we know women (barring trans types) can't be as good at physical sports but surely this issue is payment for entertainment as sport is an entertainment industry in which spectators view for enjoyment.
As said earlier women should be paid as in mens sport based on the revenue they generate the consumer decides in the sporting entertainment industry,look at PPV fighting Fury's latest was a flop but they'll make 100s of millions when he fights Wilder or Joshua the consumer decides.

The biggest issues are definitely the trans athletes competing against females highlighted of course by the Semenya shambles but far worse is the US college scholarships,young lads are getting sports scholarships as women and destroying other young women in Athletic events and denying them a chance of a scholarship.
The same trans athletes cannot compete with the males - surprise surprise.

Its shame to be a proud straight male or female nowadays

The happiest people are straight couples in loving relationships and they have kids

Shock horror Crazy

The individuals who are angry/depressed/suicidal are that, individuals ffs, no relationships and they don't know how to form them, men go nuts and shoot malls up and females just commit suicide. Men are wired differently to women hence the mentioned that happens. There are exceptions to the rule but on the whole that's how it is.

Taking the low World population in consideration, if tbnere are 112 genders then there will only be about 4500 of each gender. How does that benefit the elite compared to 250000 of each gender assuming only male and female?

"in the wrong hands" wtf are you on about. the metro a while back actually printed the sentence
"she exposed her pen1s" we are through the looking glass at that point.
female sex crime has spiked to an all time high. guess what......100% men claiming to be woman.
it is being recorded as crimes by females. men are committing rape (which under law you need a pen1s for)
and it is being recorded as female on female crime with the assailants being referred to as female in court.
woman are getting dumped on again from an even greater height than ever.
