I have spent countless hours at my daughters’ athletic events. I wouldn’t change any of it, and I actually miss having more than 1 event to go to on a Saturday.

I was not blessed with such. Darn.

Grand daughters, then.

I agree with you up to the point where you said that women don’t complain about watching the men.

"3rd grade soccer players don't complain about watching the World Cup!"

That was the snarky sexist remark I was expecting.

soupie

3/25/19 10:14pm

That’s not sexism. It’s fact. Men run faster, jump higher, are bigger, and are generally more coordinated than women.

Pimpin4Paradise

3/25/19 10:16pm

Apparently stating facts is sexist. 🙁

Exactly. Which is why you appreciate the game for what it is without thinking

As always, what is better is relative to what you value. I appreciate both

Naive or ignorant? Either way, my estimate was for any level of high school

But I would also argue even those who didn't play on their high school teams

To me it doesn’t matter. It’s different game. No reason to compare.

soupie

3/25/19 10:23pm

No reason to compare? Of course there’s a reason to compare. It’s still basketball. Just like people compare NBA and

Superkid

3/25/19 10:27pm

But not between genders. It’s pointless. Anyone else think it’s strange

soupie

3/25/19 10:30pm

I thought men could join women's leagues for gender equality?

ToasterChive

3/25/19 10:54pm

No. Well maybe the retired group.

Dillinger

3/25/19 10:32pm

False. But they can perform better at the foul line than the men’s team sometimes.

Didn’t compare the games just the heart of the players.

Playing with heart is not gender specific.

Just enjoy the game for what it is. I enjoy watching women play most sports

I'd have to be aware that there was a women's game in order to diss it

I won’t watch, but it’s not because I’m sexist I just don’t find it enjoyable to watch women’s basketball.

I love watching some womens' sports. Just not basketball.
