Yeah and plumbers should make the same money as doctors, it's only fair.

We’re talking about athletes who have equal influence in selling products, not the same thing dude

If that's true I would actually like to see some evidence, it might actually change my mind.

But in almost every other sport women make less than men, and it's because way less people watch.

Some plumbers do make as much as some doctors

As nice as your anecdote is, this would be exceedingly rare unless the plumber is self-employed, which is a whole other thing.

Who told you they have equal influence? Seems totally off base. Any sources?

I’ve watched easily 500x more men’s skiing than women’s, and I’m sure most people here also have. Nothing against women, but I can name barely a handful of women and their respective sponsors. Yet every major ski brand out there I could name at least a few dudes on their line up. So if I’m any example, no the influence is farrrrrrrrrrrr from equal. Btw don’t come back at me saying you watch women’s skiing as much as men’s (you’re gunna sound dumb)
