Why are men much more interested in women’s soccer than women; women watch men’s soccer much more than women’s soccer

Source: Men get more prize money than women in 30% of sports By Anna Thompson & Aimee Lewis at BBC at https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/29744400
Most sports do not have a gender prize gap because they do not get on the telly much and therefore barely pay enough to cover expenses even for the winners. Whatever gender prize gap that there is for the sports on the telly are dictated by ratings. About a dozen sports that have world championships appear to pay no prizes at all.

They must have had some good drugs back in the 80s; current 100m women’s record held by Florence Griffith-Joyner set in 1988

Her connection must be as good as any East German sports chemist. Marion Jones came close with 21.62 seconds in 1998 to Griffith-Joyner’s 200m record, which also still stands, before later admitting she had been doping.

That means that any decent high school boys athlete is faster than any woman who has ever lived by a good margin.
