Can't help but take a scholarly standpoint to rationalize this one out. Historically we lived in a patriarchal society (male dominated). They ran the government, the church and the home. Women tended the children and cared for the home/man. After thousands of years of "running the world" its become an innate belief that they are better, hence being sexist. As for sports, back in the club weilding days of hunting and gathering, men (because they don't have children) would hunt in packs (teams). This is probably where the interest in sports comes from and since hunting was an almost exclusively male dominated activity, most men believe sport is a predominantly male dominated activity. Even my gentleman prefers I sit on the sidelines and watch him play. Stupid but historically grounded.

men are physically superior. do you think the wnba could run with the nba? they can't even use a full sized ball. i'd bet the wnba champs wouldnt be able to hang with a decent d-1 mens basketball team. the same goes for all other sports other than volleyball and golf. Its a reality. If females were as good as men at sports they'd have co-ed professional sports by now. I'm not saying that no girl could ever beat a guy but when it comes to the best, woman are far off from men in sports.

Its not about being sexist. Its just that anything physical is highly dominated by men. Its like you girls taking pride in being mor tidy than us men, but then arent some men tidy? Same with sports.

Because underneath all the bravado, they're coping with feelings of homosexuality and/or insecurity. Or it could be that men are better at most sports.

lack of knowing what is good in life...it's not about who scored the winning touch down in super bowl 12..like god sakes read a book about how you can better yourself.spend some time with loved one,your family,kids.not let go to the bar and watch the game...that is selfish

is just like society, many people hate it, some love it, bad/good, and that way has been how our parents raised all of us, thinking that way, in order for us to not fail againts society and get to be a poor stupid who hates society, and hated by everyone, so even though many people doesn't like how society works, we live on it, and follow its rules, so that sexist thing guys have, and I do honestly is because society, parents and everything related to our chillhood has made it that way, not by choice, by orientation

male ego. women can compete well in almost any sport, as you can see from the most recent olympics.

I think it goes back to men think their better(not all men).When you think about it their is no women sports that everyone follows i.e. baseball,football,basketball.

I wish I knew. I think it is because they can't fathom getting beaten by a girl.
It's and ego thing.
