Everyone saying that women's sports are played at a lower standard are sorely mistaken to generalise like this.
Women's tennis is probably one of the only sports that has a fairly equal amount of funding/sponsorship/competitions/airing on tv but demonstrates that women absolutely can play at an elite level in sports.
Women's football is the example many comments are using, but if I may: women's football is at a 'lower standard' because it receives less funding, the players are unable to train as extensively, many players even playing at elite levels have sport as a part-time job because they are paid a fraction of the amount men are. I agree that the reason for this is money, as sponsors and tv channels want to make the most profit, but it is a vicious cycle in that if women's sport is continually cast aside in this way, there will be no change.
This all stems from the history of women being perceived as the weaker sex, but we need to break these stereotypes. So yes, I think women's sports should get more coverage, and I think they would be watched by people. Imagine all the little girls and all the women who will be inspired by it!
