This article provides exactly two pieces of data to support the assertion that women’s soccer is more popular than men’s. Specifically, it says that the 2015 USWNT brought in more revenue than the 2015 USMNT and that the finals earned better ratings than any men’s game.

I agree 100%, but then again, you and I are probably seeing the world through a healthier perspective than this friend of mine.

Letting it soak sounds like as much fun as chewing up a great steak without being allowed to swallow.

Sorry you’re going through this. It hurts when somebody doesn’t reciprocate our feelings, and it’s insulting and infuriating when they show no consideration for them.

The recidivism rate for sex offenders is lower than for most other crimes.

People are weird and vain and insecure.

I doubt that’s the only part of the city they visited.

I think your argument is reasonable, but lots of sports already limit the technology available to athletes in the pursuit of entertainment.
