BP: Can you link me what you consider to be mainstream/non extreme feminist sites?

I have a theory that I'd like to test out. It's obviously true with the crazy stuff that ends up on TiA, but I'd like to evaluate it for the...

They generate about 4 times as much money as the men's team, yet the players are paid less.

Assuming this is true, this is only a part of any conversation about compensation. The far more relevant question is: How much do I need to pay to field a competent team in each sport?

Men's soccer is wildly more popular than women's soccer worldwide, thus men's salaries are far higher across all professional leagues. If the USMNT wants competent players to suit up, the pay required to command that talent is going to be strongly influenced by the market value of that talent. The market value for a male soccer player is far, far higher than the market value for a female soccer player of equivalent relative skill, so the national team pay will need to be higher in order to attract competent male soccer players. The revenue generated by each sex's team isn't a huge factor as the U.S. Olympic Committee's primary goal is to win medals, not be cost-positive.

To illustrate this, imagine there were two new sports at the Olympics this summer: Coding and garbage collection. The U.S. wants to win gold in both and cost isn't a major factor. Garbage collection turns out to be far better TV than coding -- instead of seeing a bunch of mostly introverted guys staring at a computer for hours, we see a bunch of mostly extroverted guys throwing bags across half a block to land in a moving garbage truck, which is swerving around obstacles. Garbage collection generates more revenue, but which team commands the higher salaries?

they aren't better and think they should be paid more

That is a fact. The pay the women get reflects their inferior footballing (that is the word, right) ability. The weakest national men's team in the world could easily defeat them.

So, feminists also talk a lot about equality and a level playing field. Why doesn't that apply to the soccer team?

I'm pretty certain the US women get paid a lot more than the men for the weakest men's team in Africa, for example.

But that team would demolish the USA womens' team by at least 10 goals. So it's unfair for the US women to be getting paid more than the worst African men's team.

Could it possibly be the case that all the feminist talk of fairness and equality might be mendacious chin music to mask a female chauvinist agenda? Perish the thought.

Yes. All those issues are less important as male suicide.

Women dying from self-induced abortions isn't as important as male suicide?

Unless abortion is illegal, it's not. Even if it were, it's not that important.

In India

lol

Apathy towards the murder if the victim is a woman

Is made up. There is greater thought given to crimes versus women than versus men.

Murder / suicide of trans people isn't as important as male suicide?

Nope.

Guess why? There are less trans people killing themselves than men.

EDIT :

Let me break it down for you.

Women dying out of self-inflicted abortions when legal and safe alternative are available is stupidity. Honor killings in India have no place being used as motte - since they're in India. Apathy towards murder is mostly made up from few allegories which are twisted into gender war scenario - when you've got models like Duluth where man is the primary aggressor and women serve 63 percent less time for the same crime, there's a problem.

And lastly, absolute number of trans people is less than absolute number of males. Absolute number of trans suicides is thus probably less than absolute number of male suicides. Therefore, if you wish to lessen "suffering" in the world, you start with male suicides.

Sarcastic snark is useless.
