Society isn't sexist. I applaud the accomplishments of the US Woman's team; they are dominant in their field and are compensated appropriately. I guarantee that the U-15 club team that beat them 5-2 aren't paid what the women earn. Where's the insessant bitching that those boys don't get 'equal pay'?
The women's world cup made about $130M; roughly 2% of the men's $6B last time out. The US women's team makes 13% of the take; whereas, the men make about 9%.
Furthermore, despite a reputation to the contrary, the US prefers the humility of a Jim Craig to the self-aggrandizing bullshit of a Megan Rapinoe, it's disgusting. You never heard Jim Craig say 'I deserve this'.
