Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 2779382, member: 591"] All is probably true. And sad. But, in the end, it drives the low salaries. Making the leap from sexism to low salaries (if anyone is so inclined) using this argument may be fundamentally correct, but their view is so non-nuanced as to come off as, well, missing a good deal of the point. I am as disappointed as anyone with the (relatively) low salary for such accomplished athletes, although - lets be honest - it isn't "bad" money when it isn't compared to other athlete's salaries. But you cannot get blood from a stone. Or water from a dry well. Or, well - choose your own metaphor. If the money isn't there, they are not going to get paid it. That is the central point, with the "why" more money isn't generated a whole separate issue. [/QUOTE]
