The rights of the athletes have nothing to do with the preferences of the viewers. That preference may be what is holding things back.

True. But legally, athletes have ZERO rights when it comes to the amount of their compensation. They are independent contractors and are not entitled under any law to have pay equal to anyone else, regardless of sex. It is truly a free market. They can negotiate, through their agents, as much as they can get.

All workers in America have rights as far as their wages. There are always ways to get more money, if that's important. But most sports leagues are monopolies, and it's hard to break into any of them.

Athletes can do more than negotiate. The Women's US Soccer team has shown that.

Not if they are independent contractors in sports or entertainment, The only rights they have are the rights stated in the contract they negotiated.

You argue the most mundane shit sometimes, that has so little to do with the topic.

But ok, athletes & contracts. The team has the advantage, with all their lawyers and having other employees and all, bue athletes don't give up any rights unless the negotiated contract says so.
