I completely agree with you that women need to start watching the AFLW and support women’s sport. 

As a fairly non athletic female, the only sports that I ever watched would be gymnastics and ice dancing at the Olympics. Because those were the sports I did as a kid (dancing sans ice).  As an adult, I did CrossFit for a while. And now I love watching women’s CrossFit events. 

Now that my daughter plays AFL, I’m learning the game and starting to enjoy watching it. I’m wondering if this will be a generational thing?  Will our daughters be the ones watching the AFLW as they grow up as they got to participate in these sports where as mine didn’t?

Trust me - the viewership for women’s sport will only go up - and personally I watch women’s tennis until the early hours of the morning and swimming (especially at olympics) and I want every girl to follow their sports passion and know there is a league for them.

I just have to keep referring back to the reality that women and men are equal halves of a population so whatever is most popular with either is where advertising/money goes to.. why would you sign up a multi-million contract to something that reels in less than 100k viewers? 

I understand people hate capitalism on reddit but that’s the system we have and you have to look at it objectively.. I don’t like it but it is what it is. 

Thanks for your response hope your daughter absolutely kills it
