    I distinctly remember Maria Sharapova earning more than 95% of Male Tennis Players. Seems like everybody forgot that.

    The problem here is that not many people watch women sports especially women. If nobody buys tickets, merchandises and has low viewership count, how do you expect women to earn as much as men?

      Well, do what USSR, ugh USSF did with USMNT did with the men's earnings: give it to their female counterparts.

    hard fact: people are not as interested in women's sports as men's sports

    please elaborate there are so many more reasons why like sponsorships, US viewers vs international viewers, game ticket sales and so on. why are u not addressing the real reason men get more, it's not gender, it's the money they bring in.

    How come she didn’t show any NBA vs WNBA stats. The WNBA is owned by the NBA and they take a hit on it every single year since it’s existence but let’s not talk about that.

      "a hit" is being very generous 😅

    How ironic that the call for equality in woman's sport is based on the initial inequality of the separated men and woman's games. Women say the sexist thing that they are not as good at tennis as men, (I know many women who are better at tennis than some men), and then shout the inequality card within that accepted unequal system!! Why not solve this gender problem in sports once and for all and in a way that is totally gender neutral - just have a game, a race, a golf tournament, a tennis tournament open to all people of all genders and get rid of the legacy system of separated men and woman's sports that causes the problem in the first place. I wonder how many gender identities would agree with that fundamentally fairer system?

      Because then there will be 0 females playing sports professionally
      Pretty gd simple 🤷🏿‍♀️
      Also: Serena Williams was on par with No #600 ranked males

      Most of them don't watch women sports in comparison to men , so they earn less .

    Men will literally scramble to get the latest jersey of their favorite team as soon as it's available to order. Can you say the same for women? There are no women FANatics

  • @thucydides7849

    Using women’s tennis as your example ruins the argument. Women’s tennis is actually just as entertaining. Watching women’s basketball is equally entertaining to watching HS boys varsity basketball

  • @steviechat
    @steviechat ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Why should women get the same as men? At Wimbledon, both the men and women champions get £2.3m. That's not fair. Men have to play 5 sets and women only 3 sets. If you only play 3/5 time, you should only get 3/5 of the money, that would be fair.

    • @marviwilson1853
      @marviwilson1853 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Very true. Don't quote pay as a final payment, quote it as an hourly rate. Then woman are paid considerably more than men in any tennis final.

    Alright Bloomberg, tell me why I should watch football that has peaked at the u15 boys level against the football that has physical monsters like Ronaldo and magicians like Zidane and Messi. I ain't ever watching an u15 boys game unless my son is playing.

    how do you get people to watch women sports? this is the problem. you solve this, women will be paid more.

    Men play 34 games per year women only 22. Men bring in 38% more fans…
    I want to earn the same amount of money as the Kardashians ….
    By the way, in the U.S. Open men compete best out of five yet women compete best out of 3. Still getting paid the same amount.
    Is that really equal?

    US Women's football is a joke. The streets were empty and awkward when they returned.

  • @Sams911

    These idiots forget a basic economic concept (actually it's a law)... Supply = Demand ... If people (both men ad women) don't tune into a sports event, then you can't pay said players more. And even in Tennis, top men's players earn more..

    Yeah streaming on Paramount and Twitch may look awesome and massive, but only compared to other streamers. And even that is not enough to capture a large base of audience. And also, feminists are not fans of women sports. Or maybe their numbers don't make significant difference in the audience. Maybe

  • @lockandloadlikehell
    @lockandloadlikehell 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Simple solution: be as good, strong, tough, fast, resilient, accurate, and capable as men, and youll get paid and get all the respect you crave.
    Then you can stop whinging about how you put out a good product that people wanna watch.

      That's not as easy as you make it sound. Men and womens physiology is completely different with men having shit tone higher amounts of Testosterone in comparison to women. For our anatomy, women currently in sports are doing very well, but people always compare us to men which of cause makes us sound like we're shit because they're biologically stronger.

  • @richatlarge462
    @richatlarge462 ปีที่แล้ว

    What an all-around silly topic. There is no problem requiring a solution. Of course there's a gap, and it makes total sense. The revenue is vastly different. Period. If women want to be paid comparably, they are free to try out for the men's league, which is open to qualified women. There just aren't any. Failing that, they need to attract more fans (including other women). In tennis, this is already the case. But that's the only sport that comes to mind. Whereas the WNBA exists thanks to funding from the NBA, in other words it's a tax paid by NBA ticket/merch buyers and advertisers.

    honey ... why you forget to talk about the woman basketball league and their beautiful games they play ? loooooooooooool .

    Excuse me, but this is BS. You guys are purely entertainers nothing more nothing less. Why if I go to play in the movie I’m not gonna get the same money as Tom Cruise?
    I think men need to develop a show, make the Kardashians, but only in men and sue for equal pay. 😂😂
