5	Analysis of accounting records yields shock finding: the U.S. women's national team soccer players were actually paid more money by USSF than the men over the past 8 years. Equal pay? I'm pretty sure its equal actually. If both teams play 20 games and lose all of them, they get paid the same amount. if they play 20 games and win all of them the men would get more than the women. Women in the National Team pool get paid no matter what, where the men only get paid if they are on the active roster, not in the pool.	/r/MensRights	30/07/19 02:54 PM
1	Analysis of accounting records yields shock finding: the U.S. women's national team soccer players were actually paid more money by USSF than the men over the past 8 years. Equal pay? Why not? all of what you mentioned is paid by US Soccer.	/r/MensRights	30/07/19 02:50 PM
7	Analysis of accounting records yields shock finding: the U.S. women's national team soccer players were actually paid more money by USSF than the men over the past 8 years. Equal pay? It is relevant because the men play a more valuable version of the sport.	/r/MensRights	30/07/19 02:47 PM
1	It sad how true this is The 2/3 was your interpretation of the numbers though, not mine. I have nothing to do with that outside of providing the raw numbers. I'm not taking them back, I just created an apples to apples comparison out of it from the apples to oranges comparison it was in. Do you not think it is fair to compare the first 4 games of each teams world cup against each other?	/r/MensRights	16/07/19 01:25 AM
1	It sad how true this is Jesus christ, thats not context.. Holy shit. FWIW, they don't get 2/3 viewership. Back out the final from 2015, which had 25 million viewership and you are down to 27 million viewers over 6 games. 2 more games than the men but about 1/3 the viewership. Those numbers aren't favorable to the women. Since the men played 4 games in the 2014 WC we should really compare it to the first 4 games of the 2015 WWC. Guess what, that makes the womens tv rating look even worse. Compare apples to apples and …	/r/MensRights	13/07/19 07:16 PM
2	It sad how true this is I'm sorry, I didn't know I had to do math for you, but the story I linked and quoted said "the women’s team would earn 38% of what the men earn." Now, 38% is very close to 4/10 which if we remember fractions from fourth grade, that reduces to 2/5. lol no shit, i don't think you know what context means though. Is that my arguement? Did i say that anywhere? I just gave stats and you are turning into something i didn't say. You are making stuff up that I said. I didn't say anything regarding what t…	/r/MensRights	13/07/19 04:58 PM
2	It sad how true this is WTF did I just read? I didn't understand very much of your post. Where does 1/4 come into play? I still don't understand that. You may need to spell that out for me. Your 2/5 women vs men has zero context to it. Context is everything. The Context is what I covered in a previous post. Guess what. Women don't care about sports as much as men. Thats why mens sports are more valuable. Sure the WNT is more marketable now, but its a world cup year. This year isn't proof of anything. If they are being …	/r/MensRights	13/07/19 06:45 AM
2	It sad how true this is Okay, but why is it less valuable, and why is there less interest? Because people like watching men play sports...its the same reason the NBA is ways more popular than the WNBA. They are the biggest, fastest, and most athletic. And that statement is only true worldwide -- not within the US. People watch the USWNT for the same reason they watch Olympic Swimming. They want to see USA win. If the USMNT made the WC final the rating would be massive and would dwarf the USWNT ratings. Well, that's t…	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 11:33 PM
3	It sad how true this is Yeah, so if males player gets hurt they have more to lose. So their compensation is fair.	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 02:46 PM
2	It sad how true this is Its True. US Soccer is subsidizing the NWSL's payroll by paying the NWSL salaries for the USWNT players instead of the teams. US Soccer makes the USWNT players play in the NWSL to be on the national team. Alex Morgan gets paid by US Soccer for being on the national team and a second salary for playing in the NWSL.	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 06:32 AM
8	It sad how true this is There is a huge difference in the quality of opponents. The Women would get slaughtered. The USWNT loses to teenage males regularly.	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 01:37 AM
3	It sad how true this is Don't forget US Soccer pays the NWSL salaries of USWNT members.	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 01:34 AM
2	It sad how true this is The womens team players have to play in the NWSL to be on the USWNT. They don't go to Europe.	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 01:33 AM
18	It sad how true this is On a per game basis the men made more per game. Only reason the women made more in ticket sales is because they played almost 20 more games than the men in that time period. USMNT have missed the world cup once in 30 years, but yes keep saying they miss it half the time. Your post doesn't account for the competition levels. USMNT has way more competition compared to the USWNT. It is way easier to win a Womens world cup than a mens world cup.	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 01:31 AM
41	It sad how true this is On a per game basis the men made more per game. Only reason the women made more in ticket sales is because they played almost 20 more games than the men in that time period. "Why does womens soccer make less money?" Because they play a less valuable sport that has significantly less interest. Comparing the 2019 WWC to the 2018 WC isn't very good simply because the mens team wasn't in it. When you compare 2014 WC to 2015 WWC you see the women had better ratings in one game than the men had. In …	/r/MensRights	12/07/19 01:24 AM
