It’s whatever. Buick is doing the same thing. Some stupidness about 40% of sports are played by women but they only get 10% of the media coverage. It’s not because of discrimination it’s because they suck at sports relative to men. So people aren’t interested. If I’m going to spend time watching sports I’m not going to spend it watching inferior athletes.

I foresee this causing more than a few heads to explode.

What will people drink now, Coke is already being boycotted and now Pepsi does this!

They are different athletes, but I do not think inferior is the correct word.

I watched the Women's Final Four games this year and they were more enjoyable to me than the NBA. I find the style of play in the NBA unwatchable. Much preferred it back in the days of Stockton and Malone.

Maybe Jill is really Jack after transitioning!

But they are 100% not better athletes or in other words inferior. You can like it better but an average Div 1 HS Boys Varsity Basketball team would run that SC team off the court. They might have to institute a mercy rule at halftime.

Different does not have to equal inferior. But you are free to view them that way, it is a free country after all.

What does inferior mean to you? To me it means not as good which by any metric women athletes aren't as good as male athletes. It doesn't mean women are bad people it just means they are smaller, slower, weaker and generally less athletic than their male counter parts. That's not really even debatable and it's 100% the reason women's sports aren't nearly as popular from a spectator's perspective as men's sports. That's not always the case, womens volleyball gymnastics, and maybe a few others are more popular than the male equivalent, but something tells me they arent more popular because the females playing these sports are actually better than their male counterparts. I could be wrong but I doubt it.

Is a Toyota Camry inferior to a Chevrolet Colorado? The Camry is smaller and less powerful than the Colorado. Yet I would not call it inferior

If the game the 2 cars are playing is how fast can you go or how much you can tow then yeah it is.

Is the women's basketball played under different rules? Is the game fundamentally different than the men's game? The only difference in the men's and women's basketball is the people playing it and one of them is inferior to the other. Women might be superior to men in many things. One of those things isn't athletic endeavors. I dont know why you're getting all butt hurt over that.

Not butthurt at all, just view it differently than you. You will notice i am not the one telling someone they are wrong and trying to change their mind.

You have your view, I have mine. I am cool with that, but you do not seem to be

Let me ask you this. We are going to play a basketball game. You get to pick any 5 people who have ever lived to play on your team and they will play the current NBA team with the worst record. If your team loses we are going to shoot you in the face. Is anyone on your team a woman?

Because you're making a ridiculous asertion that women athletes arent inferior just different which is fucking stupid because (insert sport here) played by both men and women and the best woman gets smashed by the best man in that sport 99.9999% of the time. Its a silly take that doesnt reside in reality.

Man, it just kills you that I refuse to bow down and agree with you.

Sorry, but you will not change my view.

Just accept it is mine and move on.

Only because you're basically saying grass isn't green it's blue. Why you're doing that I dont know. Oh and why didn't you answer the question above this post? I know why but can you please just say it?

TV is socialist in charging the consumer. Women's soccer, basketball and softball eat up a lot of airwave time on the sports networks. That is not high-level sports. Nothing wrong with showing it. But let people who want it, pay for it and give others a discount for not wanting to watch it. Then we will be freer.
