I'm sorry, but what the fuck are you on about?

At no point has money been a part of the discussion, it has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. Or what the main part of the thread was about.

You said that you want to remove separation/segregation in sports. OK, i might have misread, but everything you said made it seem like you don't want to separate men and women in competition.

That will lead to women no longer being a part of sports, since no one wants to watch tier 6 football on TV. Which is where female football players might qualify to play. But even that is quite a high tier, considering the swedish womens football team lost to boys under 16 in a practice game. They will no longer be able to qualify for the olympics in any athletic competition, except perhaps for gymnastics, where there is physical advantage for being a woman.

You live in some kind of fantasyland where people watch sports "for fun". You might play sports for fun, but people want to watch the best. Women have fought for decades to have their own separate leagues in order for them to be a part of the best in a sport. You somehow think the only reason women don't compete with men in sport is because they don't get payed? That's an insult to all female athletes that worked their whole lives to be the best woman.

It would be like going up to Florence Griffith Joyner and saying "Nah, you just didn't try hard enough at trying to beat the men at 100m dash".

I recon you don't even like to watch sports.
