    Women's sports.
    Hey guys so been on a discussion with a female friend who thinks I'm sexist because I said women sports don't have that much of a following due to their lower level to men's.
    My position was recently strenghtened with the fiasco that happened in Roland Garros's women division(all top 10 female players were knocked off already).

    What's the point of female sports?

    Why would anyone watch female sports instead of men's?

    Well of course the overall standard is lower- the simple fact is that men are physically stronger and faster. I don't think it's sexist to say that, it's just the brutal honest truth and I am not going to hold back saying that because of the threat of being accused of some -ism or another.

    But OP this thread was done only recently.
