The truth about women's soccer is that it's played at a pathetic level. I highly doubt that the U.S. women's soccer team could beat the best boy's under 12 teams. The Australian women's team (ranked 5th in the world) lost a game earlier this year to the Newcastle Jets under 15's 7-0. In 2012 the U.S. women's team lost 8 - 2 to the U.S. under 17's, and the boys were instructed to "take it easy" in the second half.
The only reason women appear to be as skilled as they are is because the level of opposition they face is equally as pathetic.
Compare the skill of these 10 and 11 year old boys to the crappy slow boring games that women provide. How many times have you seen 4 successful passes in a row in a woman's game.

As usual the press gushes over women's modest accomplishments and lionizes women's mediocrity so that people aren't aware of the vast differences between the skill level of men and women. Other than the top 4 or 5 women's national teams in the world, women's soccer is played at a junior high school level. I wouldn't watch men playing soccer at such a poor level, yet my tax money is used to subsidize women playing at this level, and then those women demand "equality". Now soccer video games even have the option of selecting female players to play alongside the men as if this would be realistic in the real world.
There are a myriad of levels of professional soccer in the world. England alone has the premiership, the championship, two levels below that as well as regional professional leagues. If women were truly so good at the game you'd think that one lower level team would take a chance on signing a woman just for the publicity and the kudos, yet this hasn't happened.
