  • Im gonna guess.

    Sport is a spectacle. At the highest levels of any given sport(usually)

    Women, if they cannot compete with men, will simply not exist in the highest levels of that sport.

    If women cannot be part of the highest levels of that sport, the sport cant make enough money to create leagues that can convince enough women to put significant amount of systems in place to train and produce the best women capable of playing that sport.

    Until we stop caring about only letting/finding/supporting/producing the best of the best, its an incredibly bad idea to ignore the many sport specific disadvantage biology plays in competition

    Actually listening to Ogre Battle when i read your comment. So thats fun and i wanted to share and thank you.

    I found a deep cuts playlist to listen to before reading This article (i didnt agree with everything the article claimed, but was a passionate take on queen which was fun in its own way)

    I accidently opened up the wrong app when I finished reading it and intended to come back here. After seeing the track list Ogre Battle immediately caught my eye as it is also the name of one of my favourite video game franchises.

    Now i wonder if there is any connection between the song and the game. Now I really hope(and my head cannon until proven wrong!) is that the game creator or someone on the team was a huge Queen fan

    I feel like you misunderstood me so let me try to elaborate to fix that. My apologies.

    You are making definitive statements, instead of framing your statements as opinions.

    It might not improve your enjoyment of the songs, but they are objectively better lyrics by having more meanings.

    Improvement doesnt need to be enjoyable. In the same way popular does not equal quality.

    Im not trying to convince you to like the song anymore. Im pointing out that you misrepresented them with your comment and then doubled down on it. Its fine im not upset or trying to convince you to listen to the song more, im merely trying to explain, and at this point for anyone else reading this threads discussion.

    Lyrics arent always meant to be deep thought provoking amazing literature, but serve the theme mood or tone of a project. You could say the same about dialogue if we wanted to broaden the scope of this discussion. Thats not a suggestion, just framing my purpose.

    I hope this helps to explain what I was saying, and if it doesnt we will simply have to hash it out, or agree to disagree. Im fine with either outcome
