I base it on the fact that men don't tolerate this shit the way women do, period. We don't have to. That's our privilege as the people in charge.

The fact that there is "money" behind men's organizations is just an abstract that represents collective interests that aren't gonna change any time soon. Actually watching athleticism is more interesting than staging social dramas with athletes as proxies, which is apparently more interesting than women's sports. But us? We're satisfied. No man on earth wants to watch a 5'1" 120 lb FTM fumble a pass before getting decapitated by a linebacker.

Well, actually, some people might want to see that. But I think it would discourage future players.

(And yeah, they took Boy Scouts. But that was because Boy Scouts has been a hollow shell of its former self for decades and was basically just an open piece for free capture by whoever wanted it.)
