    The American womens FIFA team lost to a 15 year old JV high school team 5 - 2 game .

    The American mens team would handicapp to 7 players  with no goalie and still beat the women woke team by 15 to 20 points in a real game .

    If the women want the same pay as men then the league should earn equal revenue and love for the sport as the male league ( but really as the NFL , NBA , MLB , MLS there really is no male league ) does .

    Women are designed differently to men and have, for the most part, less muscular frames and are not as tall therefore they are neither as fast nor as strong. There are exceptions to this but, in general, that is the way it is. Is a woman less significant or important because of this indisputable fact? Professional sport is effectively an entertainment industry. The more popular a sport is, the more people want to watch ... and the more people who want to watch, the more money there is in the kitty. Should women's teams be supported by men's teams, though, as an acknowledgement that they are equally valued and should this be solidified by them receiving equal pay? This is a really difficult one. Where would the money come from? Any business knows that if you are running at a loss between revenue and expenditure then the company won't survive. Ideally what is needed is greater investment and increasing popularity to equalize that deficit. It would be nice if the pay women receive truly reflects our culture's genuine desire to both promote and practice equality within reason. I think the reality is that at club level it isn't possible but at international level it could certainly be closer. However, that might come at a terrible price. Male professionals often come in for a lot of serious abuse because of the money involved in the game. Money is so often a curse but so rarely a blessing .... unless you are poor and needy. I like the idea of feeding and housing the homeless and supporting the disadvantaged. Do they play soccer? Sometimes, given the chance :)
